ACHIEVING EAGLE SCOUT STATUS FOR A GOOD CAUSE
In August, Richard Balistreri, the son of Colder’s Tom Balistreri, and his scout troop supported the Ronald McDonald House by constructing Trek bicycles for families to use. To achieve Eagle Scout recognition, Richard secured donations and partnered with Wheel & Sprocket to purchase bike parts and assemble these bikes. Wheel & Sprocket did a final safety check and then delivered the bikes, including locks and helmets, to RMHC so families are ready to ride. Thanks Richard, your fellow scouts, and your parents for supporting this project for our Ronald McDonald House!

EKBLAD’S IS GETTING A NEW LOOK!
Thanks to LG, Ekblad’s in Williston, ND will be getting a store makeover! Dealers earned entries by going through product walkthroughs in the LG booth at The Convention in August. Dealers could also earn extra entries from ordering at the Stampede. Winners were drawn every hour on the hour during the last day of The Convention, with 3 winners receiving trips to Costa Rica and the Grand Prize winner receiving a Store Makeover. Congratulations to Ekblad’s! Watch YourSource for the transformation!
