Seattle, WA. (January 28, 2008) - MX for Children, a not-for-profit organization working cooperatively with the Monster Energy AMA Supercross , an FIM World Championship, kicks off the 2008 racing season with the Inside Line Experience (ILE) at the Toronto, Canada round of the Monster Energy Supercross March 27 - 29th, 2008.
The Inside Line Experience is a package of exclusive opportunities at the Monster Energy Supercross round at Rogers Centre in Toronto. It affords participants an unforgettable experience for the race: Hang out with top supercross riders in an exclusive, relaxed, and small environment; attend the supercross press conference; watch a private practice; tour a factory rig; walk the track; and get great seats.
Participating in the Inside Line Experience is a great opportunity for families to share their passion for Monster Energy Supercross as seen from the experiences of the Yaskow family, a participant from last year's ILE: "It was jam packed ... From pictures, autographs, press conference, private practice, pit passes... It was like Christmas... This was the single best experience we have had with our son. We saw this little boy full of compassion and excitement. Not for himself but to help out and see how much he could do".
Friends, family, co-workers and/or corporations can all pledge donations to Toronto's Hospital for Sick Children via participation in MX for Children's Inside Line Experience. Please visit www.mxforchildren.org to sign up to receive online donations or download our pledge form. The top 10 fundraisers over $500 by March 20, 2008 will each win TWO (2) Inside Line Experience passes at Toronto Supercross.
MX for Children's Inside Line Experience pledge drive raises funds to support research at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto. Donations fund research for treating hydrocephalus - the #1 cause of brain surgery in children. These efforts will help improve the lives of kids that must endure multiple brain surgeries to live.
MX for Children sincerely thanks Monster Energy Supercross and the motocross industry for their ongoing support as fundraising for the 2008 program begins. In 2008 MX for Children has raised the bar, setting their fund-raising goal at $135,000.
