                      Imagine you're racing in the Tour de France or Indy 500. 
                      The wind is rushing past as you gain speed and move toward 
                      the finish line...you bask in the glory as your fans cheer 
                      you on. Wait...even better...imagine you're racing in rustic 
                      Pennsylvania and pushing a wheelchair up hills and down 
                      scenic valleys. This time you're part of the Variety Young 
                      Professionals special team and your fans are the children 
                      and families who will greatly benefit from your accomplishments. 
                      Now stop imagining!  Be 
                      a part of the Wheelchair Grand Prix and GO 
                      THE DISTANCE FOR KIDS!
 On October 7, 8, and 9, 2005, 
                      team members will make history by taking turns pushing wheelchairs 
                      from Moraine State Park to Presque Isle…approximately 
                      100 miles! This unique, first-ever event will raise money 
                      for Variety the Children's Charity and increase awareness 
                      for Variety's special programs for very special children.
 
 We're looking for teams of approximately 10 members. Groups 
                      with less than 10 members and individuals are also welcome 
                      to participate. If you would like, we will help you find 
                      a team. If you can't be a part of a team, join us as a volunteer 
                      and/or sponsor.
