Freewheelin' Now
By Jim Reid and sung by Ed Miller, "The Edinburgh Rambler"

Special thanks to Kevin Youngberg and his Florida company sponsored towels for all the competitors at the

Also, judge Chad Ullom, secured tote bags from Walgreens Drug for each athlete. Each bag contained
lip balm, sunscreen, gum and a first aid kit.
