What do go-karts and healthy hearts have to do with each other? For the past 3 years, Leetzow Raceway Park has been the home of the Rajun Cajun 25 in memory of Craig Bardell. Craig was a patient at Fort HealthCare’s Cardiopulmonary Rehab. An avid go-kart racer, Craig’s family and friends keep his memory alive with a 25 lap benefit race. They have raised nearly $1,400 in the last 3 years. This year, their benefit included a gift to Cardiopulmonary Rehab and the Behavioral Health Pilot project at Whitewater High School. Thanks to all of the racers, their fans and the track owners for their generosity!
