3rd Annual East Texas Burn Run Fundraising Event



Kilgore, TX - The third annual East Texas Burn Run netted $60,000 during its first foray in Kilgore this fall.  Sponsored by the Brother’s Keepers Motorcycle Club, the fundraising event drew an estimated 2,500 people to Kilgore City Park – many on two wheels, many on four – for food, riding challenges, vendors, games, live entertainment, classic vehicles and more.  The proceeds, co-organizer Jimmy Kinsey said, have already been turned over to Dr. Kevin Sitting, director of Camp I’m Still Me in Scottsville. With those locally-raised funds, Kinsey said, young burn victims will have the chance to spend comfortable, easy days with other flame-scarred children next summer.  www.fundraising-ideas.org
