Here is a better picture to show the different tracks and venues that we will be stopping at.  The event itself is 3245 miles but once you add the trip to the starting line in Indiana and back plus the race track miles we will have traveled about 5,000 in 9 days.

Remember we are still collecting for the Pa. Breast Cancer Coalition.  If you would like to "ride along" on the car please send your donation soon.  For $10 or more we will put your name on a sticker on the roof of the car.  Please see me or stop by the store, or if you would like to donate by credit card visit www.pbcc.me/donate   Please note One Lap of America in the event section when donating online.
Thank you to all who support us in this cause.

2015 Route Map

Two Members of LCCC Raising Funds for Pa. Breast Cancer Coalition
When doing a world class event such as One Lap of America, I decided several years ago to leverage this awesome experience to the benefit of a great charity. The lives of many of our friends have been touched by Cancer and especially Breast Cancer. Shane Lintner of Mount Joy and I (both members of the Lancaster County Corvette Club) will compete in the 2015 One Lap of America. A major part in this effort will be raising money for the Pa. Breast Cancer Coalition. Stickers with the Pink Breast Cancer ribbon will be placed on the car for each donation of $10 or more, and can be “In Honor of”, “In Memory of”, or you can put your own name on to show your support of the Breast Cancer Coalition. We receive many donations of $10 but also many of higher amounts too. Please consider a generous donation to help us meet our goal of $3,000 this year.
This will be Jim’s 7th One Lap of America and he has raised over ten thousand dollars for the Breast Cancer Coalition over the last few years. Make a donation and you can ride along “vicariously” (with your name on the car) on the trip and help a great cause at the same time. The Pa. Breast Cancer Coalition, celebrating its 22st Anniversary in 2015, represents, supports and serves breast cancer survivors and their families in Pennsylvania through educational programming, legislative advocacy and breast cancer research grants. The PBCC is a statewide non-profit organization that creates the hope of a brighter tomorrow by providing action and information to women with breast cancer today.

To make a donation and get a sticker on the car, stop in at the store or send to Jim Roberts, % West Main Auto, 14 W. Main St. Mount Joy, Pa. 17552 along with who to name on the sticker. Please make all checks payable to Pa. Breast Cancer Coalition or PBCC for short. You can also visit http://www.pabreastcancer.org/ and donate by using your credit card. Just click on Donate and follow the instructions. Be sure to fill in One Lap of America when asked for title of event.
I am also looking for a few volunteers who are sympathetic to the breast cancer cause and would like to be a "Captain" to help collect funds from friends, neighbors, co-workers etc, I can provide you with a kit including donation sheets and other helpful items. Please email me at jimbobcorv@comcast.net or my cell is 717-527-0110.

To help follow the adventure, I have a blog at onelapadventure.blogspot.com and have added a Facebook page, Jim's One Lap Adventure. If you go to the Facebook page and “Like” the page you will see my updates on your Facebook page automatically. Stay tuned for more details on One Lap.
