Rick Crawford will lead the Circle Bar team on it's most important lap of the year as they will truck in disaster relief supplies to Crawford's home town, Mobile, Alabama on Saturday.  Crawford, and the Circle Bar Truck Corral have teamed up with the American Red Cross and have jammed the Circle Bar Racing hauler full of bottled water to aid Hurricane Katrina disaster victims.

Crawford, "I grew up running the roads along the Gulf Coast and to see what has happened is just heart wrenching. I've got friends and family that have taken a beating last week and we just wanted to do something to help.  Watching the coverage on TV,  I saw the relief centers handing out water from the back of 18 wheelers and it just clicked as to how we could help.  Milt Bishop, our hauler driver volunteered to ride with me and we started rounding up water.  We're picking up the water in Georgia and will be in Mobile on Saturday. I can't tell you how much we appreciate the American Red Cross for the job they do.  These guys are real pros; they are the first in and the last out.  They just do an amazing job of helping and more importantly caring."  The Circle Bar Truck Corral hauler is scheduled to arrive in Mobile on Saturday morning September 3rd.
