Welcome to my fundraising page! I was born with heart disease and through modern technology provided by the Boston Scientific pacemaker device I'm able to live an active lifestyle. As you know my passion of cycling lead me to start Bike LUCK as a fund raiser for Camp LUCK (Lucky Unlimited Cardiac Kids). Growing up with heart disease I wish my family had a Camp LUCK to share experiences and meeting other heart kids. This year I will celebrate living 60 years and would like to send as many children as possible to in person medically supervised Camp LUCK in the fall!
I'm very excited to be raising money to benefit Camp LUCK and the Lucky Unlimited Cardiac Kids. I hope you will consider joining me by making a donation.
Thank you for any amount that you can give.

Bike LUCK Presented By The Charlotte Knights
Bike LUCK Presented by the Charlotte Knights is the annual charity bicycle ride for Camp LUCK. All donations are tax-deductible and 100% of proceeds raised support Camp LUCK!
Camp LUCK provides medically supervised camp experiences for kids with significant heart disease. Camp LUCK transforms our heart kids into Lucky Unlimited Cardiac Kids with programs designed to nurture, educate and support the kids and their families. It’s more than a camp; it’s an attitude … and changing attitudes changes lives. Donations will help sponsor kids who attend Camp LUCK located at Kings Mountain State Park, Blacksburg, South Carolina.
