Nord Stern's "Race For Courage 2007" netted Courage Center $15,500!!!
This is an outstanding number when you consider all the donations were made by Nord Stern members or friends and all the winning bids were by Nord Stern
members or friends.
Special thanks go to Steve Beddor for donating use of the Quattro garage. To
Mathew Hall lumber for sponsoring the raffle artwork. To Roger Johnson and
our race sponsors who covered the tables expenses... Due to those people, we were able to give every single dollar we raised to Courage Center!
Thanks also to Emily Matzke from Courage Center and her husband Marcus for
spending their weekend with our club. (Marcus is still grinning from the
parade laps, Jon).
Thanks to Bruce Boeder for being our outstanding auctioneer. To Mary Grace
Arndt, Rachael Rothman, Michelle Smith, and their friends for being runners
and table watchers. My wife Susan for understanding all the evenings of me
standing over the copier. Also, to Christie Boeder and Jon Beatty for
handling parade laps, etc. Thanks to Roy, Lon, Phil, Mark, and the rest of
the 356/944 crew for setting up and tearing down tables.
An incredible thanks to the 45 donors who donated the 132 items. You make
that part of my job so easy, I ask, "would you?" and you say "absolutely!"
(Don Bodin from the Vintage Club has already agreed to donate a couple
Donnybrooke race school passes next year!)
Lastly, thanks to all the Nord Stern and VSCR bidders who made this weekend
such a success!
