Shoot, we want to double it!

Rick and the gang,

Great work guys, it was a good show and we are all proud that the OCC can make such a contribution and show everyone a good time also.

Looking forward to next year, i'll do my best to help out.

Great Job everybody. That is impressive.

Not only was it a good time, but LSC was able to make a contribution ($100,000 !!!!!) to a very worthy cause!

Good work, Thanks to our leadership at OCC & LCS.:)

Looking forward to next year, I hope to go again!

Thanks folks. That $100,000 is not all. They made money from the rides, London FD and Madison county DARE, the church (the one that lets us use their grounds all weekend) got checks... just not that big! Plus there is the residual value added from the exposure, etc. Our local CBS station ran three or four spots about the cause on the news this past weekend.

FYI, we generally keep LCS revenue and the fund raising for CF 'seperate'. That is, we price LCS to cover the cost of the event, not to make money. The money raised for CF comes from donations, raffle ticket sales, etc. While we really want to help CF in all ways possible, we never thought it was fair to 'force' some one to donate to a specific charity, hence the price structure of LCS registration. But of course, while LCS is going on, we are trying to raise money for CF with the auctions, rides, etc.

By the way, raffle ticket sales for the 2008 raffle car, a beautiful solid black Superformance will be available on October 15 at www.londoncobrashow.com

Here is a picture of the check presentation! The young lady is Emily. She is ten years old was diagnosed with CF at the age of three. In the TV interview that CBS did with her before the presentation, she obviously has a career in broadcasting ahead of her! Our mission is to see to it that her and other children like her get to realize their dreams. We also donated to London FD, London PD and Madison County DARE programs.
