Vincent Haskovec

The Wegman Fund has been designated as the collection fund for donations for Vincent Haskovec.

Morgan Broadhead of Suzuki called to ask how he could set up a fund for Vincent. My advice, which was backed by an attorney he contacted, was to funnel all donations through the Wegman. Thereby alleviating any tax situation for Vincent.

We are accepting donations through our website donation page, www.wegmanfund.org , or by snail mail.  Either way be sure to specify the donation is for Vincent Haskovec as we are keeping a seperate accounting for his funds.

There will be some press releases out soon concerning fund raising activities for Vincent. Please watch RRW and Superbike planet for info. There is an auction being planned but I'm not sure how (online or ?)or where it's going to be held.

Is there a PayPal account or how does one make a
donation? Would love too... :)

There is a screen on the Wegman site where you enter your credit card info, and the donation is taken from the credit card.  No PayPal.

Credit card, specifically Visa/MC, is all we take on the donation page. We used to have a pay pal account but it was compromised by some leech thief, so much for pay pal security, and we closed it.

FYI

Had a friend who went to visit Vincent last week.
Said he is in great spirits and looking forward to staying involved with racing on any level.

From what I was told, the fracture of T-4 or T-5 has severed Vincent's spinal cord.

He had lots of visitors and you just had to wait your turn.

We are looking forward to seeing Vincent back involved with the sport.

In the paddock here at RA.....what a great weekend so far.

Activities for Vincent are picking up. There will be an auction held at Laguna for him. Donations are coming in for the auction from top racers , AMA and beyond. Nicky Hayden has promised a signed helmet and crew shirt from the Honda GP team.

We have had donations coming in steadily on line and here at the track.

The bad part about all the Wegman work is I haven't seen a bike on the track yet.......oh well. Maybe I can break away for a bit later this afternoon.

From beautiful Road America  hast la bye-bye.

  Why don't we "sticky" this for a while longer?

I can't remember where the t-shirt thread is but we got our shirt and it's very nice.  It's just too bad we got a Vincent shirt in these circumstances.
