โค๏ธ๐ RACING FOR WAYLON ๐โค๏ธ
Around 3โ4 months ago, we were contacted about the opportunity to host a memorial race in honor of Waylon Brice. Waylon tragically lost his battle with a rare and aggressive form of brain cancer called DIPG this past March at just 5 years old.
After speaking with Waylonโs family and his mom, Paityn, we knew this was something we wanted to be a part of.
As we continued planning this event, we knew we wanted to honor Waylonโs life by helping others facing this same heartbreaking battle. Many of you have heard the story of precious Miss Millie Kate, another little girl from right here in Corbin who is also battling DIPG. โค๏ธ
After much thought and discussion, all donations raised through our upcoming memorial race will be split between Millie Kate and her family and Mott Childrenโs Hospital, which cared for Waylon.
On Saturday, October 24th, Corbin Kart Track will host our โRacing For Waylonโ Memorial Race as we honor Waylonโs courage, remember his life, and come together as a racing community to support two causes close to our hearts.
Itโs heartbreaking to see families in our own community affected by DIPG. If we can use our track and our racing family to make even a small difference, we want to do our part.
We hope to see a great turnout as we come together for something much bigger than racing. โค๏ธ
More information regarding classes, purses, donations, and other race details will be posted in the coming days.
Letโs pack the track, honor Waylon Brice, and show Millie Kate, her family, and everyone touched by Waylonโs journey the love and support of the Corbin Kart Track family. ๐โค๏ธ
