Lawn mower race to benefit HD research 7/18 & 7/19
July 13, 2009 05:26PM
As many of you know I am producing and directing a documentary film on how the sport of lawn mower racing is being used to bring awareness of and raise research funds for Huntington's disease. The race is this coming weekend in Sparta, MI. On July 11 I had the good fortune of being interviewed on WOOD 1300 AM in Grand Rapids regarding Huntington's and the role that lawn mower racing plays in bringing the disease to its end. I will be interviewed on Kalamazoo's WZUU this Wednesday July 15 at 9:30 AM EDT. You can listen online at [www.wzuu.com]. If you know anyone in Western Michigan please make them aware of the race. Details at [www.hdmowerraces.com]

I think I will have to buy some T shirts from you at another time. After losing my IT job last fall I am waiting tables a few days a week, selling some of my musical gear, and borrowing money from friends and family to finish the film. This weekend will be expensive as I am hiring a second camera person for Saturday and Sunday.

My PHD husband would love this. We both grew up in MI but now live in OH. Wish he was strong enough to make the trip. It sounds like a lot of fun.Good luck!
