Blue Waldo, the alter ego of FCC Major Gifts Officer Michael Quam, raised $10,054, half of which will support FCC’s Child Abuse Prevention efforts. The funds collected for FCC are part of a record-breaking effort for the Conductor Wannabe contest, which marked its 27th year.

FCC is grateful for the support of community members and businesses, including Beer By Bike Brigade, Feils Knapp Chiropractic & Wellness Center, Games People Play, GPC Beverage, La Crosse Loggers, Leithold Music, Linda’s Bakery, Marine Credit Union, The Rivoli Theatre and Pizzeria, and Xcel Energy.
