All contributions go towards race payouts, let’s make this the biggest ladies single race payout ever! DM to support the mission! #speedweek #ladiesnight #womenathletes #womeninsports #grantparkcrit

Trish’s Note: I’m speechless! This is amazing! I will be there! My schedule is now cleared to take photos that day. The Grant Park Crit would like me to let everyone know that there are sponsorship opportunities available. You can sponsor the whole race, one race (ex. the Women’s 3/4/5 or Juniors), as a general sponsor for the day, or a prime for a particular race. I know you have $25 or 50 you want to support the Women’s 3/4/5 or Women’s 1/2/3! Southeastern Cycling has will be sponsoring a prime for the Women’s 3/4/5 field. If you are interested, contact me, and I’ll put you in touch with their sponsorship coordinator.
