Flood Run - September 18 - Lake St. Croix Beach, MN

The Flood Run® has a history of giving. In 1965, 12 motorcycle riders rode 90 miles to Winona, MN to help sandbag during the 1965 Flood. 

 

Most of the original 12 spent the next several years in Vietnam, but all were back home by 1970.  They decided to carry on the tradition. Jim Noteboom named the ride The Flood Run®. As the years went by, a fall Flood Run® was added to have twice as much fun.

Chuck's Cut for Rett!

Inspired by their daughter who was diagnosed with Rett syndrome at 2 years old in 2000, Chuck & Lisa have been very involved in raising awareness and funds to support Rett syndrome research. With Lisa wanting Chuck's long hair, grown out during the pandemic, gone, Chuck decided to do it for the low amount of $2,000 raised. Bringing together friends and family wanting to show support for their daughter, Chuck's pre-pandemic look, and Gillette Children's Center of Excellence in care and research related to Rett syndrome, they shattered their goal! Raising $9,585, Chuck has a great new cut while supporting Gillette Children's Specialty Healthcare.
