SHORT BLURB FOR EVENT CALENDARS, SIDEBARS, WEBSITES AND NEWSLETTERS

In it's fifth year, America's British Reliability Run is a challenging, but fun, driving event that so far has raised more than $100,000 for worthy children's charities. This year, two separate 800-mile runs on the same weekend, October 6-7, 2007, will benefit two highly-rated charities. The Wisconsin run begins and ends in Janesville and will help Milwaukee-based "The Center for Blind and Visually Impaired Children." The Ohio run, beginning and ending in Massillon, will benefit Columbus-based "Adventures for Wish Kids." Each two-person team pays their own expenses out-of-pocket and has a goal of raising $500 for the charity.

Up to 50 British cars of any marque or vintage may participate in each run. Even if you can't participate in the run, please support this effort by making a donation of any size. Again, teams pay their own expenses, so 100% of your donation goes to the charity, please help us increase our total!

STORY IDEAS

We have registered an all-female crew, driving a 1971 Triumph Stag. She expects to have two additional co-drivers and her dog, since this model has 2-plus-2 seating.
