Incorporated in 1998, ALS of Nevada is an independent, not-for-profit organization that works to improve the lives of those living with and fighting ALS throughout the state of Nevada. Specifically, ALS of Nevada works to help patients and families try to live as normal as lives as possible, conduct support groups for patients, caregivers and family members, and work to aid patients through the loan of equipment, free clinics and advocacy. They also work to encourage and support scientific research for the prevention, alleviation, care, treatment and cure of ALS, along with increasing awareness of ALS in all levels of government in an effort to expand their support of research and elicit programs that will make treatments and care accessible to those suffering from this disease. ALS is always fatal, and there is no cure or no known cause. More commonly, ALS is known as Lou Gehrig's disease and strikes without warning or family history. Franktown Meadows and The MacLean Family are excited about this partnership with ALS Nevada - to raise money for such an important organization, working to fight ALS.

The FM Hunter Derby hopes to continue to make their event one that riders will look forward to for years to come as it allows riders an experience of a lifetime.
