A Special Thanks to Bill Jones

Bill Jones has been our most generous supporter since race's early years. This year he has outdone even his great generosity of past years with a tremendous donation toward the education of local students. Please think about staying with him at his newly opened Schulenberg Inn and Suites when you're in the Schulenberg area.
