Helmet and Jersey raffle to benefit a rider with cancer

[oldguy]

Every year Aztalan Cycle club members Big John and Marshalynn Meehan coordinate a raffle of a helmet and jersey signed by as many Pro riders at the Milleville National they can corral. In the past proceeds went to cancer research bt this year it will go to the family of a rider in Wisconsin that is battling cancer.
The drawing will be at the Triplecross banquet Saturday January 29. (deadline to purchase tickets has to be Thursday January 27, 2011 so I have time to get them to the Meehans)
If you are unable to attend I have tickets for sale at $5 each, 3 for $10, and 7 for $20
You can purchase through Paypal using spiderwebmxpics@gmail.com or if you are at the steels shoe this Sunday I will have them there. Altho I can guarantee your ticket stubs will be in the drawing I can not guarantee you will win- sorry. I will also take checks mailed to me at Dave Hollub 7205 Bergman Rd Sauk City WI 53583
If you use Paypal I would appreciate you use the method of saying it is a cash advance because then I don't get hit with the service fees and your entire donation goes to the fund. I need your full name, address, and a phone number that can be used to setup delivery to the lucky people. We will ship internationally

All money raised will go to the Ben Petersen family to help as they fight cancer in one of their family members. Let's make this a success and help a fellow rider out in the end.

a list of the riders signing the items is
Helmet (donated by Motosports Factory, Waukesha WI) and 1 jersey:
#5 Ryan Dungey #9 Ivan Tedesco #10 Tommy Hahn #12 Jake Weimer #18 Davi Millsaps #20 Brock Tickle #21 Blake Wharton #23 Justin Brayton #28 Tyla Rattray #29 Andrew Short #32 Kyle Cunningham #33 Josh Grant $42 Ben Evans #43 Steven Clarke #46 Ryan Sipes #48 Max Antsie #55 Kyle Chisholm #58 Weston peick #101 Ben Townley #122 Dan Reardon #133 Matt Teder #137 Travis Sewell #166 Dakota Teder #200 Cole Seely #339 Michael Thacker #341 Nico Izzi #377 Christophe Pourcel #577 Martin Davalos #628 Joey Rossi #800 Mike Alessi and MITCH PAYTON

Thanks again
Edited because I have been notified the MXoN Jersey has gone missing. If it is located again I will add it back in

I most of you have no clue who I am or if you can trust me with your money. All I can say is I have been around DRN for years and twice a year members freely send me money to enter the Fantasy MX I run and never in 10 years has anyone come up short in the end. If you are willing to take part in this effort be assured every penny you send WILL go to the family and you WILL have your ticket stubs in the drawing.
In the past Chili won a helmet and I remember one other DRN member winning a jersey but don't remember his name

Come on ya'll .... it's a great cause, pitch in a few $$, it'll make ya feel good.

Oldguy's rep is beyond reproach, a mod here on DRN for 10 years and one seriously good, caring (old) guy.

Put me down for 7 Dave.

 

[oldguy]

Got it and thank you. Every $ we can raise will help this family out more than we can imagine

 

[Rich Rohrich]

You have money in PayPal Dave.

 

[VenomRS4]

Im kinda poor but I still did $10. I hope it helps even though its not much.

 

[wrench]

You have PayPal Dave :cool:

 

[KelvinKDX]

[oldguy]

Thank you everyone Venom $10 is not a small donation and every penny raised will help this family get through a devastating time

 

[Vic]

You've got money!

 

[Offroadr]

done

 

[KiwiBird]

Done.

 

[Chili]

Paypal sent Dave. After my Dad's battle with cancer I hate to see a young man have to fight the fight, every little bit helps!

 

[High Lord Gomer]

I'm in!

 

[oldguy]

You guys are all absolutely awesome :cool: :nod:
Chili nailed why it means so much to me. This young man is the same age as my son (22) and rides the same class. I didn't see him around the tracks this summer and thought it was just his time to begin a new life away from the track. Then I found out the real reason why he was away late in the summer- No way someone his age (or any for that matter) should have to fight this fight

Well, I hope all goes well. These stories break my heart and I want to do what I can to help. Oldguy, im active on 3wheelerworld.com also. I know trikes are somewhat frowned upon by many people but would you be against me posting a link to this on there? Im sure some members on there would contribute as well.

That would be great anything that can be raised will help the family out. :cool:

The MXoN jersey has been located

It turns out the shop that donated the helmet had taken that and both jerseys to display. So now the raffle has the 2 jerseys and the helmet.
I hope to have a full listing of teams that signed the MXoN jersey by Saturday night since it is being shipped back to the Meehans.
Unfortunately the USA team is not on it as they locked themselves inside their pits and were unavailable to do any signing :(
