This race was held to benefit Matt Thomas. On the morning of July 9th, 2009, Matt Thomas overshot a jump while mountain biking in Southern Oregon and dislocated his C6 and C7 vertebrae. When he woke up from the accident he was paralyzed from the chest down. Matt had emergency surgery in Medford Oregon, where he is currently recovering.

Besides being an active outdoorsman, Matt worked as a civil engineer and was recently laid off, and had no insurance when the accident happened. Enjoy the possibility of winning some of the finest paddling gear available. While you are at it consider making a donation to help Matt's recovery. mattthomasraffle.blogspot.com mattnevergivesup.blogspot.com
