A Message from the Race Director...

What a great day we had together!  It’s hard to believe what began as a dream, a vision of what community support could do to build a brighter future for the children of Chileda.

Your dedication and enthusiastic support of the Classic shows why this event continues to be one of the most successful events of its type – anywhere. Your generous support of the LCC allows us to provide the children and young adults of Chileda with compassionate care and educational services that enable them to live successfully within the community.

There are many people that help make this dream possible, but I would like to recognize just a couple of them. We extend a special thank you to the following award winners and sponsors:

The Jim Gokey Model Citizen Award:
Don Heidel
Founder and former CEO of Chileda

The Citizen’s Top Pledge Award:
The Suminski Family as Team Alex

The D.B. and Marjorie Reinhart
Kid’s Race Pledge Award: 
Alex Thompson

The Robert D. Smyth
Corporate Pledge Award: 
Logistics Health Incorporated

Thrivent Financial for Lutherans for sending out a challenge to our communities that will help us to raise over $100,000.00 and for matching all pledges received. 

And to all of the runners and walkers that worked so hard to get those pledges.

Sincerely,

Mark Thorn, The Idea Center
Race Director

Chileda thanks our 2007 LCC Sponsors for their vision and support!

Another beautiful evening found friends gathering in the courtyard at Viterbo to enjoy a delicious meal of Cajun fish, potatoes, cole slaw and scrumptious desserts to raise funds for out of budget expenses for Chileda.

Thank you to our sponsors Midwest Family Radio, WKBT Newschannel 8 and to all of our in-kind donors that helped us to throw such a great party!  Much thanks to LR Ross and La Crosse Awning and Tent for building the fantastic hot dog stand to serve the Coney Island kids meal!
