“MotoBowl is our primary fundraising event,” said the WMXF’s Antoinette Gress.  “MotoBowl leads into the Glen Helen National and we can’t think of a better way to celebrate the last AMA Motocross race of the season.  The money that is raised is distributed to numerous riders, industry workers and as always the Asterisk Mobile Medical Unit.  With so many talented riders and industry celebrities participating, we know we’ll surpass last year’s amount.”
