Shark 7 Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 I will sponsor Hi-Tech with $25.00 to see him do it. Remember Mike its ICE WATER not Ice Tea. Medics will be needed for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCreacy Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 Doing the ice bucket challenge during intermission in Pit row would get the crowd involved. The buckets can be dumped from the flag stand down onto participants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
top_shelf_12 Posted August 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 I like that idea but the ice may hurt a little lol. So Intermission under the flag stand sounds like a winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

top_shelf_12 Posted August 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2014 I'll try to get some extra water jugs from work to borrow this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMcCain8 Posted August 22, 2014 Report Share Posted August 22, 2014 I was going to suggest the fans dumping the ice but Mike beat me to the punch. I say Dan gets the biggest jug lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
top_shelf_12 Posted August 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2014 I'll also propose walking around after the challenge with helmet to collect from fans and make a huge donation on behalf of CC Speedway fans, drivers and officials if Dan is ok with that.

top_shelf_12 Posted August 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2014 Thanks Waer, I'm challenging STS and anyone and everyone involved there and Danielsen and the Shootout guys to do it next weekend too during their two day show if they so choose too. Hope it goes well for us and then again for them if they take the challenge. All in good fun and yes, the main goal is ALS awareness, a little fun, and hopefully both tracks can get a little boost and some good publicity as well as a good product on track. ALS is horrible, seen a few sports specials with athletes that were struck by if and a close friend's aunt battled for a long time before succumbing. Saw on Facebook tonight that the Challenge has raised $6 million so far. The site I'm going to use for donations is alsa.org Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCreacy Posted August 22, 2014 Report Share Posted August 22, 2014 The ALS web site says they have not only raised awareness but have raised $41 million from the challenges. http://www.alsa.org/news/media/press-releases/ice-bucket-challenge-082114.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
