DESIGN QUARTET AT RAVINIA SUPPORTS LEUKEMIA & LYMPHOMA SOCIETY AND LOCAL BIKE RIDER, STEVE WESTLUND At Ravinia District's Wheels and Deals Night, Thursday June 18th 5-8pm

Design Quartet at Ravinia is passionate about giving back to the community and the Ravinia District’s Wheel’s and Deals Third Thursday event has presented them with a wonderful opportunity to do so. On June 18th from 5-8pm, DQ@R will be hosting a barbeque and a raffle to raise awareness and funds for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, an organization that is near and dear to DQ@R’s Steve Westlund’s heart.

For the past eight years, Westlund has been participating in the organization’s fundraising bicycle ride, the Scenic Shore 150, a two-day, 150-mile trek from Milwaukee to Door County. This year, the ride will take place July 18-19. His team, including his son and daughter-in-law, will be sponsored by Crystal Cabinets, DQ@R’s preferred custom cabinet manufacturer.

“I am absolutely thrilled to be able to share my passion for this cause with the community at the Ravinia District’s Wheels and Deals Event,” says Westlund. “It’s the perfect opportunity to raffle off a great bike and get the charity wheels spinning in people’s minds.”

DQ&R has dedicate their next Third Thursday to hosting a barbeque full of hot dogs, chips, and plenty of beverages. There will also be a display of Steve Westlund’s collection of motorcycles. All attendees will have the opportunity to be entered into one of two raffles with a $10 minimum donation to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Deerfield Cyclery is the co-sponsor of a bicycle raffle for a blue Giant Escape hybrid, with a retail value approximately $500. An additional raffle will be held for a pair of 9th row Chicago Cubs tickets versus the Milwaukee Brewers on August 12 at 7:05pm. The raffle winners will be announced on June 30th.

DQ&R is eagerly looking forward to the Ravinia District’s Wheels and Deals night. Effective immediately, the public is invited to stop by to make a donation and enter the raffle. The Giant Hybrid Escape is currently on display in the store’s front window. The entire DQ@R team is ecstatic to extend this event to Highland Park and the surrounding community.
