There were top times and prizes, but the real success comes from the community coming out to enjoy a beautiful day to support a great cause, RADD (Recreational Activities for the Developmentally Disabled).
Once again, runners of all abilities and ages took to the streets of Sturtevant for the Ruud Rush to benefit RADD (Recreational Activities for the Developmentally Disabled). Between the runners, walkers, vendors and volunteers, the community came out for a morning of, well, community. Congratulations to Adam Trausch! His guess for how many army men were in the Patch vase came closest to the actual number. He wins a $25 gift certificate to Wells Bros. Pizza in Mount Pleasant! Do you have photos from the event? Share them here!

Patch user "mp" guessed that the teams would combined for 33 runs, two fewer than the actual total of 35.
Editor's note: Due to an oversight, the winner of this contest was incorrectly announced on Monday. We sincerely regret the error. It shouldn’t be surprising that most entrants in Patch’s Pro Baseball Pick ‘Em Contest did not give the batters enough credit in making their selections. Milwaukee outscored Chicago 18-17 in the three-game series over the weekend, and few participants counted on 35 total runs from the teams battling for last place in the division. By guessing the teams would score 33 runs (Brewers 19, Cubs 14), Patch user "mp" was chosen to win the $100 gift card good for pro baseball apparel. Thanks to everyone who participated. Enjoy the rest of the baseball season!

All-star first baseman will answer questions, post exclusive videos and share advice for young athletes in new, regular feature on Patch.
Good news, Milwaukee baseball fans! There’s a high-priced, power-hitting, left-handed first baseman on the way. Not to play for the Brewers, of course. Instead, Patch users young and old can tap into the expertise of New York Yankees star Mark Teixeira, who has been named “Commissioner of Patch Baseball.” Teixeira, a four-time Gold Glove winner and two-time All-Star, will interact with Patch users by regularly responding to questions, sharing baseball tips, and posting exclusive videos. Teixeira will also offer young athletes advice on how to stay in shape and why healthful eating is so important for optimal performance. “I live in a Patch town now and I keep tabs on my original hometown via the Patch site there, so I’ve seen the ways that…

Seeing as how Patch is supposed to be a local news reporting entity, couldn't we use Jason Jaramillo or Marcus Hanel, the Brewers Bullpen Catcher, both from Racine County? How about a Brewer Player. Someone other then a freaking Yankee....... more ›
