Santerre charity ride raises $40,000

More than 270 people showed up for the 4th annual Andy Santerre Sno-Run, a charity snowmobile ride last weekend out of Caribou which helped raise $40,000 for the victims of sexual assault in Aroostook County.

There were 130 sledders for the 100-mile ride during the day and then a much larger gathering for the dinner and charity auction that night. Joining Santerre, a 4-time champion of what is now the NASCAR Camping World East Series and a former Nationwide Series race winner, were East Series drivers Peyton Sellers, Jamie Hayes and Jeffrey Earnhardt -- grandson of the late Dale Earnhardt.

The 4-year cumulative total of funds raised by the charity This brings the four-year funds raised total for the annual event to close to $100,000.
