As they do every year, the Port Washington Club (Wisconsin) challenges all MOA clubs (and individuals) to donate at least $100 to the Karol Patzer MOA Children's Challenge.
This year, all donations will benefit the caring work of the Empower Me Center, an organization for children and young adults with special needs located in Lebanon, Tennessee.
Karol Patzer was a longtime and beloved MOA member who founded the concept of choosing a deserving organization in the town the MOA National Rally, and this has become a yearly tradition.
If your club wishes to donate to this cause, your check should be made out to BMW MOA, with “Karol's Charity” written in the memo space. Checks and cash donations can be brought to the Charity Booth on the Rally grounds.
Also, be on the lookout for enthusiastic MOA members in their red aprons walking the Rally grounds and selling 50/50 tickets. Half of each drawing will benefit the kids at Empower Me Center with the other half going to the winner of one of the five individual drawings held on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Wouldn’t you like to be one of the happy winners this year?
