Slingshot SMILE Experience
We had our first official "Slingshot Smile Experience" respite day with two amazing teens impacted by cancer this past weekend at Utica-Rome Speedway and boy was it a BLAST! It was so much fun creating smiles with you Blake Bechtel and Erika Berry !
We can't thank Jason Broedel and April LaMunion from Utica-Rome Speedway enough for so warmly welcoming us, our crew and our KEYS families, and for donating the use of the track to us for the morning so we could make these teens dreams come true! (Thanks for the tshirts and hats too!) You folks are amazing!! We can't wait to come back next season!
BIG thanks to our KEYS Program Smile Crew volunteers who work so hard to make the day so special for our KEYS teens, including: Mike Bennett Amy Boulrice Donna Mucks John Mucks Cheri Schmalz Brian Schmalz Josh Olney Sandra Tornberg Richard Burton Robert Mayne James Wagner-brownell Sean Wagner Zane Hasty Alex Finn and our special guest volunteer and sponsor Cathy Quinn! (Check out Cathy taking some laps in the car in the photos Jim Quinn! )
