We all had a great time on July 11 and it was a huge success for the Down Syndrome Group of East Tennessee.  Thanks  to all of you who came out to Quaker Steak and Lube to participate in our bike show.  Also thanks to everyone who helped with the show.  The kids had a great time and we hope to see you again next year.

Raymond "River" Campbell was riding a motorcycle along Alcoa Highway near the CVS pharmacy around 6:10 p.m. when he pulled onto the median to wait for his friends to catch up. He then lost control of his bike and crashed, said Knoxville Police Department Lt. Ed Mitchell. Brother River was on his way to a wedding when the accident happened. He is survived by his wife and children. The Campbell family and friends are in our prayers. Rest in Peace Brother.
