Mudfest brings in 18 racers; DC Kids to man rest stop

LaCrosse

Saturday’s Mudfest was a success with 18 vehicles coming to race on the dirt and mud tracks. It would not have been possible without the many volunteers. Ed Casey and Ken Kelso appreciate everyone who helped out with this worthy cause. All proceeds benefit the Richard L. Roberts Memorial Scholarship, a scholarship based on community service. Local Kurt Harder in his Mud Ugly had a very successful day winning his class.

The DC Kids had a very successful bake sale at Hullaballoo Saturday in Colfax. Their next fundraiser will be to man the rest stop at Hwy 395 and Hwy 26 with drinks and treats on Oct. 15 - 17. If you are traveling that way be sure and stop by and support the cause. The DC Kids get to keep any donations they receive for the food and drink.

Marty Mullen will be at the TeaPot Cafe on Friday, Oct. 8, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. She will have available for purchase her book, “Reflections on the Road.” Ms. Mullen recounts her adventures traveling our county and the people she met along the way. Proceeds will be donated to a LaCrosse community project.
