For the first time in the show’s history, there were two beneficiaries: Carl Dulany and Lukah Case. Carl, a member of the Clinton community for almost four decades, was diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS, Lou Gehrig's disease) last year. ALS affects the nervous system and ultimately shuts down voluntary muscle movement. There is limited knowledge regarding the disease, which tends to progress quickly. Since the diagnosis, Carl has lost nearly all of his muscle control and is permanently confined to a wheelchair. With the help of his wife, Mary Kay, Carl attends an ALS support group which provides comfort to those who have been diagnosed.

Lukah, a 16 year old Clinton High School student, was diagnosed with Dysautonomia in October 2013. Dysautonomia is a disruption of the autonomic nervous system (ANS), which creates issues with the cardiovascular, respiratory, and digestive systems. Symptoms of Dysautonomia include increased heart rate upon standing, extreme fluctuations in blood pressure, seizures, dizziness and insomnia to name a few. Once a standout athlete, Lukah is now unable to attend regular school classes due to the side effects of her condition. In order to prevent further injuries, Lukah's family is trying to raise $20,000 to purchase a service dog through Canine Partners for Life.

As always, the goal of Scott & Ted's annual car show is to help generate awareness in order to help fund further research. Thanks to your generosity, we were able to raise over $4,100 which will be donated to the Central Illinois MDA organization (as requested by Carl Dulany) and the Case family for their service dog.

Baum Chevrolet Buick would like to give an extra special thank you to all the volunteers, the Dulany and Case families, Black Kettle BBQ, JD's DJ Service, Ted's Garage and Midwest Mobile Dyno for helping make the show a success. We look forward to seeing you all again next year!
