Over the weekend Zach (65 7-9 and 65 open racer) was riding on another track while waiting for his 2nd motos to start. He took a hard fall and broke his tib/fib. It was a clean break and will not require any surgery but he'll be out for about 8 weeks. Dad told me all he keeps asking is if he'll be able to go to the track this coming weekend to cheer on his friends. He's a tough little man!

Clean break.:thumb It sounds wrong to say that's good news but it actually is. It's certainly better than plates and screws.

I took Zach his Arc Angel bag at the next race he attended to watch his friends. It was presented to him during another 65's riders birthday party while all of his friends and their parents were gathered around. He was excited and Thanked Everyone several times. His spirits that day were still a little down, seeing his firends for the first time after the accident was hard for him. Watching them ride and run around and play while he sat in a wheelchair. But the bag did bring as smile to his face, he loved the stuff in it and got a kick out of the "monkey butt" powder. Thank you to everyone who supports this organization!

Thanks for being an ARC Angel, posting the pics and letting us know how things went. I think the Anti Monkey Butt Powder always gets the kids smiling! Please let Zach know that we are all still thinking of him and we're glad he liked the gear bag.
