Thank you Charlie for all of your years of dedication to Randolph County, Indiana.

Thank you for your support and referrals to The Randolph County Historical Society Museum and Shop.
It has been wonderful to have race fans and those in the industry who entrust memorabilia etc to RCHS for long term access for generations.

Well done sir, well done.

Beautiful sunrise glow as light rain leaves the area and we have a respite from the heat for awhile.
US 27 southbound looking west over the Snow Hill area north of Lynn, Randolph County, Indiana.
