    Crawl to Cure Cancer Update...

    In 2008, Rock Crawler and 4Wheel Drive Hardware employee, Kelly Young lost her mother, Marie, to a brief battle with colon and liver cancer. Since then, Kelly has looked for ways to raise funds and awareness to cancer. Kelly and her team raised money all year through various events such as Relay For Life, Bark For Life, the BRR For a Cure polar bear plunge, rock crawling and Jeep shows and events and much, much more. Then, all money raised was donated to the American Cancer Society. They do this with the hopes that they can play a part in helping find a cure--something that has effected everyone. From January 2011 to January 2012 they raised $15,019. Over the last 3 years, they raised a total of $45,292 for the American Cancer Society! This is a great way to remember Marie and others lost to this dreaded disease, as well as honoring the survivors!

    Kelly would like to thank all of her fans, supporters, coworkers, friends and family, sponsors and of course 4Wheel Drive Hardware and TransAmerican Auto Parts.

    This has nothing to do with ancestry, the man ate a Jeep.
