Wilmington gym holds benefit in honor of hospitalized members

WILMINGTON (WPVI) -- Some fitness fanatics from Wilmington came together Saturday in honor of two teenagers still hospitalized after getting sick while on vacation in the Virgin Islands.

The benefit featured the favorite exercises of Sean and Ryan Esmond, members of the Cross Fit Riverfront gym.

The boys and their parents, Stephen Esmond and Theresa Devine, who were present during the benefit, were exposed to poisonous pesticides back in March.

All proceeds from the benefit will go to the Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children where Sean and Ryan are being treated.
