From Hillsboro Charity Pull Facebook page:
"Boy a lot changes can happen overnight!!! Yesterday we knew the pullers were going to auction off a replica toy to raise funds for fellow puller Mike Sandefur but after some more phone calls we have a whole line up for pullers to bid on right before the drivers meeting: Full Pull Motorsports (Bob Barbie) donated: Air Ride Front End Assembly CM Pulling Tires (Chad Mayhill) donated: $500 gift certificate towards large tires and $250 gift certificate towards small tires Hart's Diesel donated: $2,000 gift certificate Justin Stuckenschneider donated: 1/16 replica Farm Boy's Fantasy Tractor Jeff Blackburn donated: 1/16 replica of Screamin' Norwegian Tractor Hillsboro Equipment donated: E100 John Deere lawn mower Erv Clark donated: New tools All items will be auctioned off by Carol Wagenson who has generously donated her time to run the auction. We will announce the money raised during the pull so the fans can see how generous the Lucas Oil Pro Pulling Family is! #propulling" Several pullers are also offering cool "Pulling for Mike" decals for donations if you would like to assist Mike and family in his ongoing care and recovery needs. David and Janet Esteb, Mike Wilhite, and the Barbees I know had some available and others might as well. Mike was told by doctors he would never walk again; if you know Mike, he has never backed down from a challenge. I hope you join me in encouraging Mike to prove the experts wrong. Thank you.

For all the griping and fussing this message board sometimes attracts and it in turn portrays the sport at times, it is good to see the response of the pulling family to a family member in need. The auction on behalf of Mike and family was conducted this afternoon and over $50,000 was raised. While the action on the track is what brought me to this place, it is the good deeds like those displayed today are what keep me here. Y'all are pretty good people!  Bryan Lively -
