I’m writing to thank all of the Cosmopolitan Club of Aurora members who helped, and/or attended, Saturday evening’s second annual Race to Fight Diabetes at Sycamore Speedway.

The Make a Goal to Fight Diabetes 50/50 raffle, originally scheduled to be completed at our ninth annual wine event, finally found a lucky winner at the race event. Driver of the 02 Super Late Model Race Car, Jim Klingel was the lucky winner of $1,494.

A special thank you, to all the members who sold and/or purchased 50/50 raffle tickets, which raised $1,494, to help our Club provide funds for diabetes research, diabetes education, sending Type 1 diabetic children to ADA Summer camps, and assist diabetics in obtaining Diabetic Alert Dogs (DAD’s).

We look forward to seeing you soon. Together we can make a difference.

Russ George is president of the Cosmopolitan Club of Aurora.
