Backstage Flying High for the Troops THOUSANDS OF U.S. AND COALITION ARMED FORCES GOT AN EARLY HOLIDAY TREAT IN 2010 as Harley-Davidson teamed up with Bikes Over Baghdad (BOB) for seven unforgettable sports performances at military bases throughout Iraq and Kuwait. Pictured here, Mike Escamilla (a.k.a. “Rooftop”) launches his bike high over a group of characteristically brave soldiers stationed in Iraq. “Harley-Davidson shares a deep sense of freedom and patriotism with the U.S. Armed Forces, and we are grateful for their many sacrifices, dedication, and hard work,” said Mike McCann, director of core customer marketing at Harley-Davidson. BOB is a BMX exhibition made up of an elite handful of the world’s best action sports athletes, announcers, and ramp builders. The tour was the third of its kind, following two popular visits in 2009. For the athletes who make up the tour, BOB3 means putting their lives at risk to provide a few hours of escape, excitement, and camaraderie with those who work so hard to protect America’s freedom. “Our mission in Iraq is simple. We want to show the troops that we care, that America hasn’t forgotten about them,” said rider Brian Kachinsky, an X Games bronze medalist. “It’s crazy when the troops thank us for performing. We’re the ones who should be thanking them. They’re the real heroes, not us.” Photography: Keith Mulligan Keith Photography: 6 HOG HOG 7 Backstory That's Odd This summer make your way to Milwaukee to see an exotic collection of motorcycling oddities in their natural habitat: the Harley-Davidson Museum® in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Weird Wild Wonders will showcase an amazing array of treasures from the Harley-Davidson Archives, from secret prototypes to fantastic folk-art creations to “What were they thinking?” contraptions. If you never imagined it was possible, chances are somebody else did – and there’s a good chance you’ll see it here in this special exhibit. In this photo, members of the Forty & Eight Club, a veterans service organization formerly associated with the American Legion, piloted this zany Harley-Davidson Servi-Car at a convention in Oregon in 1952. Weird Wild Wonders will be on display for a limited time only: June 11-August 21, 2011.

  • This Directory
    1 Lincoln Trails Community Organization Directory Edited and Formatted by Noah Lenstra, July 2010 Introduction: This directory was created and maintained by member libraries of the Lincoln Trails Library System—especially Champaign Public Library, Marshall Public Library and Charleston Public Library – between the late 1990s and early 2000s. Its purpose was to help reference staff and patrons find up-to-date information on community organizations in the communities in which the libraries were located. As the local CyberInfrastructure was developed, and similar databases and directories were supported by, among others, the Champaign County Mental Health Center, the need for this database waned and staff time allocated to maintaining the database shifted elsewhere. The present volume preserves a snap-shot of the database as of Fall 2009 – and includes not only entries for community organizations at that time period, but also entries for various community organizations that have existed in East-Central Illinois between approximately 1995 and 2010. Although it is not comprehensive, it can serve as a valuable tool to discover the history of community organization, not-for-profits and social service agencies. Organization: The directory is organized in alphabetical order by the first letter of the organization. In many cases organizations have various alternate names, meaning that redundant entries appear in this directory. Thus “American Red Cross - Illini Prairie Chapter” is found both in the “A’s” section and in the “R’s” section under “Red Cross.” A full-text searchable version of this directory is maintained on the Champaign County Historical Archives’ server for additional access points. Structure of entries: Not all entries are complete.
