Runza gives to baseball program - in Chad's name

August 17, 2012

Ten weeks after a horrific car accident sent him to the hospital, fighting for his life, Broken Bow teen Chad Christensen returned home Aug. 10. In celebration of his homecoming, Runza Restaurant in Broken Bow offered to donate 100 percent of its ice cream sales for the day to the Senior Legion baseball program, in Chad's name. Thursday, restaurant owners Kevin and Joyce Richardson presented checks totaling more than $1,100 to Mike Evans of Broken Bow's Diamond Youth Organization (DYO) to be used for the baseball program. Chad and his parents, Mike and Cathy Christensen, were there for the presentation as well.
