Hey Grove Express family! Let’s support our event emcee and Downers Grove native, Jon Hansen! Jon helps us each year promote and hype up at crowd on race day, let’s support him and his efforts to raise money for Special Olympics Illinois!

We love you Jon, best of luck!

Hey friends! Lou and Lisa pulled ahead but I know we can surge to the top of the WGN Radio ducky derby standings. One duck, 6 ducks, 12 ducks or more — whatever you’re able to give to help out Special Olympics goes a long way.

Link to my page in the comments and let’s shock the world and beat the radio legends 🦆!
