BKC/Briggs And Stratton Charity Races
Badger Kart Club is proud to announce the addition of the Briggs and Stratton
Charity race to the 30th Annual Road America Supernationals. Sponsored by
Briggs and Stratton, this special race will be held after practice on Friday,
June 10th. All proceeds will be to benefit Badger Kart Club's Howard Memorial
Scholarship Fund. Every entrant will receive a special commemorative
medallion. Fair warning to the winner of this race - rumor has it that you had
better bring two people to help carry home the crystal trophy!
Named after one of Badger Kart Club's original founder, Bob Howard, late
husband of WKA Hall of Fame member Shirley Howard, the scholarship fund
gives away several scholarships each year to karters for their continued
education. These karters were selected among the many who submitted
essays to the Badger Board of Directors in hope of being chosen. Qualities not
only include their karting experience, but their contribution to the club and
to karting as a whole.
On Saturday, July 16th, Briggs and Stratton will team up with Badger Kart Club
again to hold a benefit 8-hour endurance race. Entry fee will be $500 and will
include a brand new Briggs and Stratton Animal motor in the box! Again, all
proceeds will go directly to the Howard Memorial Scholarship Fund to help our
young karters to grow after high school. The race will be held at Badger
Raceway in Dousman, WI (20 minutes west of Milwaukee).
The Badger Kart Club is not new to helping out others. This year they raised
$5000 for the Keith Tiffany Fund and two years prior, raised $11,500 for the
Brannam family to aid in their family loss. For more information about
