We need your help choosing the official shirt for our Route 66 Run Series!
As we cheer on Enric on his incredible journey across Route 66 (https://runroute66forals.org/), we’re hosting 18 celebration stops across Enjoy Illinois to raise money for ALS and bring communities together.

We’ve created three shirt options, and we want YOU to vote:

A — A separate shirt for each event stop
(Example of Stop 1 shirt shown here — back features sponsors)

B — One shirt with all 18 stops on the front
(each stop shown as a circle badge)
Back: concert‑style list of all stops

C — Illinois state silhouette
with all stops placed along the route
Back: concert‑style list of all stops

👉 Comment A, B, or C to vote!
Your feedback helps us choose the official design for the series.

Thank you.

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads!

A big thank you to everyone who joined us for the Olympic Tavern Spirits Run for ALS. While it was a small event, every runner, walker, and sponsor helped make a difference.

We appreciate your support and are grateful for everyone who came out to help us raise awareness for ALS.
