(West Salem, WI – June 20, 2009) - Sometimes the fastest car doesn’t win. And sometimes it does. It was one of those nights where everything fell into place for one of the fastest drivers this season. West Salem’s J. Herbst has been fast since opening night, but after a few early season accidents, and the bad luck out of the way, it was his night to celebrate in the winners’ circle.

It was a night of firsts on a fantastic evening of racing at LaCrosse Fairgrounds Speedway.

It was also the first time that a female driver had taken home the checkers in that division.

BloodCenter of Wisconsin wants to know “Why are you Grateful that People Give Blood?
Or: “Why do you donate blood?”
Why is blood donation important to you? Is it because you have a relative with cancer who regularly needs platelets? Likewise, why do you give blood? Is it because you know someone who was in a severe car accident and needed blood in order to survive? BloodCenter of Wisconsin wants to hear your stories.
