Leggo4 Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 There will be a Benefit/Silent Auction at the East Grand Forks Eagles Club from 12 noon to 4:00pm this Saturday. Please check out the link below. http://i56.tinypic.com/5prjba.jpg The benefit will include a "loaded" baked potato bar with all the fixings, a silent auction, and Ryker Fan wrist bands for purchase. Ryker fan t-shirts can be ordered. Ryker French, is the 8 month old son of Tim & Michelle French of East Grand Forks. He was found unresponsive, without a pulse and not breathing at his daycare on Friday, October 8th, 2010. Ryker was airlifted to Sanford Health in Fargo and hospitalized for 3 1/2 weeks. He has made miraculous improvements, however has a long road of recovery ahead of him that includes daily nursing cares, physical, occupational, and speech therapy, and much, much more. For more information about Ryker, please visit his caringbridge page at http://www.caringbri...rfrench/mystory Supplemental funds will be provided by Thrivent Financial for the benefit. Donations can also be made at any Bremer Bank, under the Ryker French Benefit Account. A couple of items that will be up for auction is a Ryan Duncan Salzburg Red Bulls jersey which is autographed. There is also a Chicago Wolves jersey which is autographed by Andrew Kozek. Everyone in the area is more then welcome to attend. I will add a photo of the Kozek jersey once it becomes available.

Please check out the link below. I think it is absolutely awesome that former Sioux players step up and continue to support the UND community even though they have moved on to have success in their careers after UND. Kudos to Andrew Kozek and Ryan Duncan for their contribution to the benefit and silent auction for Ryker! It just goes to show the deep connection that UND alumni, whether they are athletes or not, have with not only the community but the state of North Dakota as well. I look forward to the benefit! I love the pic of the Duncan jersey! http://i56.tinypic.com/5prjba.jpg The benefit will include a "loaded" baked potato bar with all the fixings, a silent auction, and Ryker Fan wrist bands for purchase.

Big A HG Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 I wish I could be there to bid on the Duncan. Too bad it's autographed though...I hate auto'd jerseys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
