It was a bit snowy and cold. But Freeport ABATE members traveled to Rockford IL to CherryVale Mall where the radio station 98.5 was hosting a telethon for St. Jude's Children's Hospital. Since most ABATE members are softies, our chapter was no different. We made a monetary donation to the cause. And to present it was Bill and Karen Cook. Here are a few photos of what went on.

Karen Cook and Steve Summers. I chatted with Steve a bit and he agreed to air our Motorcycle Awareness radio spots this past May. What a guy! Thanks Steve.

Steve shaking I don't know whose hand. It must be Arnie. But that is Karen in the background with her back to us.

Bill, Marcia, Steve and Karen. Steve has check in hand.

Now Karen saying a few words.

And your whole Freeport ABATE team who traveled to Rockford for this event. Oh yeah, minus me of course. I was taking the photo. Isn't that always the way? Thanx 98.5 for a great cause.
