Thanks once again to John and
Olivia Bartosiewicz for a job well done. They once again
pushed sales to over 4400 tickets sold out of 6500 printed.
Their tremendous effort has helped us even more to get over
the top in making it a another successful year. We had a
great turn out this past Saturday on 3/22/08 at Oak Lawn
Harley Davidson and via the Luck of the Easter Rabbit.
THE WINNER OF THE 2008 HD
FXCW ROCKER is
Grand

Schledger
Currently serving our country
in the Air Force.
On Saturday he informed
John and Olivia Bartosiewciz that he is an Iraq Air Force
Vet currently stationed at Scotts Air Force Base, in St.
Louis, Mo. He was home on leave and purchased the winning
ticket at Oak Lawn Harley Davidson. Our friends Dave and Joy
Tinsman will keep his prize in storage until he comes home
sometime in May. Just in time to for him to become honorably
involved maybe with our Illinois Freedom Run friends for
their sixth annual. Stay in touch, as there might be some
kind of festive greeting for him upon his return and
obtaining his prize motorcycle. God bless him and thanks for
his support of Toys for Tots and our country.
