Last Wednesday, the local snowmobile club made a generous donation of $500 to the Kane County Corn Growers.  Every winter, the snowmobile club relies on local farmers to allow them to groom trails through the fields.  This year, they wanted to give something back.  We accepted the donation, and will use the money as part of our scholarship program to give back to the community.  We thank you for your donation!
