The Royal Ball Run for Autism has been selected as the September recipient for Eriksen Chevrolet’s Three Degree Guarantee.

For each day of the month that the actual temperature is within three degrees of the forecasted high temperature, the Rock Island County Children’s Advocacy Center will receive $20 from Eriksen Chevrolet. Each night, the Storm Track 8 team will predict the next day’s high temperature. The forecasted temperatures are compared to the actual temperatures recorded by the National Weather Service.

The Royal Ball Run for Autism stems from the needs of the one in 59 children who are diagnosed with autism each year. The organization’s goal is to increase awareness and support families and children touched by autism through celebrating their achievements, courage and future. Proceeds from the Royal Ball Run for Autism support local programs dedicated to autism treatment and awareness. This year’s run will take place on Sunday, October 10.
