History in the making, An Evening with the Champions II fundraiser for the International Motocross Museum is set for September. If you missed the first event, now is your chance to spend an evening with legends like Rick “Too Hip” Johnson, Bob “Hurricane” Hannah, Tony DiStefano, Gerrit Wolsink, Heikki Mikkola, Jeff Smith, Gunnar Lindstrom and their fabulous factory bikes.
“The IMM will be so much more than rows of incredible works bikes and memorabilia; it will be a time capsule of a magical time for all who participated and built this sport into what it is today,” says Project Manager Tom Miller. “The IMM will truly become a global destination for so many.”
Thanks to Terry Good, IMM has the best collection of works bikes and MX memorabilia in the world. The Museum will display the personal collections of Les Archer, Ake Jonsson and other champions, more than 125 legendary motocross bikes, historic memorabilia and incredible stories of the riders, engineers and mechanics. The IMM is a registered 501 (c) 3 charity. All funds raised will go to support the Museum and its future 100,000 square foot home. If you cannot make the event, please consider a generous tax-deductible donation to support the Museum or visit the gift shop for some really incredible gift ideas.
The Evening Of Champions II is actually more like a day with the Champions and will be held at Pinstripes restaurant on Chicago’s Northside. Mark your calendar for Wednesday September 21, just days before the historic Motocross of Nations on September 24-25 at the world-famous Red Bud Motocross Park – just a short drive from the IMM venue.
Individual Deluxe tickets are $500 per seat, but this year IMM is also offering 20% table discounts; buy a table of 12 and each ticket is only $400 per person. This is for the whole day and a deluxe sit-down evening dinner, a great way for your business or group to be part of history and support the construction of the Museum. You can also bid to sit at the table of your favorite rider! All details are available on the website:
