BWR had a great showing at the the 1st anual 24 Hours in the Enchanted Forest: A Race to SolveCFS on June 19th/20th. In total we had 11 BWR’s racing, volunteering or both. This event was a benifit to increase awareness and raise money for chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) to be donated to www.solveCFS.org. The event succeeded at both, with 235 racers making up 97 teams, and total fund raising of over $20,000. This is just amazing for the first year.
