On March 26, 1994, Eddie Kieger was in a motorcycle accident in which he sustained a severe brain injury.

This website is dedicated to Eddie, his family, and his friends. Here you'll find Eddie's story, a story of a community rising up to help one of it's own, and many ways to lend a hand.

Thanks to all of you who have been a part of this ongoing effort. Your continued support has a profound affect on Eddie's quality of life.

Come ride with EKIII.

Aug 8, 2007 - Annual EKIII Birthday Run - It's done. Folks just showed up. Eddie was engaged and having a great time. A touching moment when Frito presented him the blanket. Lies were told, animal flesh was seared, strong drink consumed and pictures taken. Next year, just show up! [more]

Jul 17, 2007 - FA: The *Last* Square! - Frito's "A Blankie For Eddie" square auction is history! El Gato won the last square in a spirited auction. His donation brings the total for this project to $2781! Brilliant! Thanks to Frito, Debbie and all who bid, and all who won. Your selfless acts will Shirley warm Eddie's spirit (and his butt) for years to come.

Jun 3 , 2007 - We Came >< this close - Hordes of Netscum travelled from the four corners to descend on Gardner, TN for a weekend of artery-clogging food, cheese racing, and lie-tellin'. A few adult beverages may have been consumed - some in vintage glasses ... Roger and Karen were supurb hosts, Kenny did his usual great job with the searing of the flesh, Bear is the new champeen Cheese Racer, and Roger's suave new bar is now very well stocked. And, $1432.65 was raised for Eddie this year!

Feb 20, 2006 - Eddie Update - Eddie's improvement over the last several months is nothing short of amazing! Ann sez he's in the best spirits she and EKII have seen since the accident! [More]

Feb 24, 2004 - Eddie Has His Van! - An intense fund-raising effort by the online community paid off today when Eddie took delivery of a new wheel-chair accessable van. Click [here] for the story, pictures and a letter from Ann.
