Oak Grove Acres to Provide Aid to Milwaukee Amputee
Campground Created for Harley Davidson Celebration Dedicated to Community Service

JUNEAU, Wis. - May 20, 2003 - Oak Grove Acres, a special-event campground created for the Harley Davidson 100th Anniversary Celebration, announced today that they will donate the funds necessary to provide amputee Rebecca Krajnak with a prosthetic limb.

Krajnak, a Milwaukee native, lost her left leg in a motorcycle accident in 1998 during the Harley Davidson 95th Anniversary Celebration. Krajnak needed major revision surgery in May of 2002. Since then she has been forced to use crutches because her prosthesis must be re-fit--a process that could cost as much as $10,000. "This past year has just been so difficult trying to manage school and my job on crutches," said Krajnak, a student at Milwaukee's Alverno College and an intern at the Milwaukee Office for Persons with Disabilities, "I feel so lucky and am very excited that I will be walking again soon." Krajnak plans to enter law school in the fall of 2004 and pursue a career in disability advocacy, law and policy. In addition to providing aid to Krajnak, Oak Grove Acres has pledged to donate five dollars from every campsite reservation to the Florida-based Barr Foundation, an organization designed to aid amputees in obtaining prosthetic limbs and rehabilitation services. Founded by Jonas Zahn, also an amputee as a result of a motorcycle accident, Oak Grove Acres will be open during August 2003 for the Harley Davidson 100th Anniversary. With 60 acres of camping space, the campground is located between Madison and Milwaukee. The camping fee is $125 per adult for the week, and discounts are available for group reservations and members of motorcycle clubs such as the Harley Owners Group (HOG). "As an amputee, I regard walking as a privilege and a gift," said Jonas Zahn, founder of Oak Grove Acres. "I hope we raise enough funds through our campground to share this gift with a dozen or more amputees."
