Hi, my name is Andrew (or Drew) Rosten. My brother started this blog for me as a Christmas present. Consider it a gift that keeps on giving. I am currently the sports editor at the Ford County Record, and since taking that job in August 2012, I have won several Illinois Press Association awards. Before then, I was a part-time sports clerk at the Herald & Review in Decatur and part-time stringer for the Clinton Journal.

Farmer City Raceway Raises Money for Skate Park
FARMER CITY, Ill. -- Every week during its races, the Farmer City Raceway sells a 50/50 drawing.
The proceeds of these drawings go to non-profit organizations such as Blue Ridge's Junior Football League team and the boys and girls scouts.
On June 24, sellers of 50/50 tickets (including Chris and Rachel Dubson, seen in the photo above) raised money for a skate park to be built in Farmer City.
The plans are to build the skate park in an area near Weedman Park.
The recap of June 24's races can be seen in the post below. More results and information can be seen on farmercityracing.com.
