Great Start to the Lumberjacking Season!

The Midwest Log Rolling Championships finished with yet another successful year! This year’s tournament was a fundraiser for the Huntington’s Disease Society of America – Great Lakes Region. Through competitor entries, donations, and sponsor donations, we raised well over $1000, and money is still coming in!

On top of the fund raising success, the competitors had a blast as well! We grilled out, played games in the park, rented canoes, and gave away prizes! Hopefully many new friendships were made.

The professionals also had an exciting day of competition. Many great matches and huge upsets made this quite a spectator event!

So congrats and thank you to everybody who made it out to Madison last Saturday. I hope everybody had a blast, while raising money for a great cause. Look out for an even bigger event next year!

The tournament was a HUGE success thanks to the many volunteers: George Martin, Ken Goldrick, Olivia Judd, Kevin Trauscht, Alex Waite, Larry Waite, Doug Goodmanson, Chris Fischer, Travis Wells, John Worthington, Melissa Worthington, Phil Olsen, and the Swansons!

Also a huge thank you goes out to our sponsors: Wingra Canoe and Sailing Center, Flad and Associates, Pasqual’s Salsaria, Noah’s Ark Water Park, Mt. Olympus Water and Theme Park, and Trek Bicycle Store.
