๐ŸŒŸ Meet Our Jockey, Dr. Andi Selby ๐ŸŒŸ
Say hello to Dr. Andi Selby, a Family Medicine physician and deeply committed community leader here in Branson, Missouri. A graduate of the Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine, Dr. Selby went on to complete her Family Medicine residency at the prestigious Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota.

Today, she serves as the Family Medicine Program Director at Cox Medical Center Branson, where she pours her passion into training and inspiring the next generation of physicians.

Beyond her professional impact, Dr. Selby is a proud mom of two young daughters in the Branson School District and has been actively involved in supporting local educationโ€”including serving as Vice President of the Branson PTO.

Sheโ€™s married to Dr. Michael Selby, a nephrologist at Branson Nephrology and Dialysis, and together they are deeply rooted in the health and well-being of families throughout our community.

๐Ÿ‡ Why Dr. Selby Is Racing for Skaggs Foundation:

Skaggs Foundation has long played a vital role in supporting health and wellness across our region, and Dr. Selby is honored to contribute to that mission. When asked to participate in this yearโ€™s event, her answer was simple:

โœจ โ€œI am honored to be asked to participate in this event to help our community in this way.โ€ โœจ

Her leadership, her heart for service, and her dedication to Branson families make her an incredible addition to this yearโ€™s race.

๐ŸŒŸ Meet Our Jockey, Angie Teel ๐ŸŒŸ

Introducing Angie Teel, the General Manager of the Branson Convention Center and a powerhouse with over 20 years of venue management experience. Her career began right here in southwest Missouri while attending Missouri State University, and sheโ€™s been elevating events, teams, and community spaces ever since.

But Angie's favorite title? Super Mom to her amazing kids, Lucas and Nora, and โ€œthe best wife to ever wifeโ€ to her husband, Ryan. ๐Ÿ’›

๐Ÿ‡ Why Angie Is Racing for Skaggs Foundation

Angie believes that when you invest in your community, everything else falls into place. Thatโ€™s why the mission of Skaggs Foundation resonates so deeply with her. Their continued commitment to supporting people, creating opportunities, and building longโ€‘term wellโ€‘being across Taney & Stone Counties is something sheโ€™s proud to champion.

And this year? Angie has her eyes on the win.

โœจ โ€œI want to be the Frontโ€‘Runner for this yearโ€™s Derby. Looking at my fellow jockeys, I think it will be a photo finish!โ€ โœจ

Her leadership, enthusiasm, and passion for strengthening the community make her an incredible addition to the raceโ€”and one fierce competitor.

๐ŸSkaggs Legacy Endowment Grant: Child and Family Safety

Skaggs Foundation is proud to award a grant to Gift of Hope, supporting four Cents of Pride Stores in our local schools โ€” Kirbyville Middle School, Mark Twain School District, Hollister School District, and Forsyth School District!

Thanks to Gift of Hopeโ€™s commitment to students and their determination to seek out these funds, hundreds of kids now have access to these meaningful, empowering schoolโ€‘based stores.

๐Ÿ›๏ธ What Are Cents of Pride Stores?
These stores give students the opportunity to earn Pride Bucks through good attendance, positive behavior, and strong academic effort. Students can then use their Pride Bucks to โ€œshopโ€ for essentials and items that support their success.

โœจ More Than a Store โ€” Itโ€™s Support & Confidence
Cents of Pride Stores promote:

๐Ÿ“š Responsibility
๐Ÿ“š Confidence
๐Ÿ“š Dignity

They also provide important resources students may not always have access to, including:
๐Ÿ“š School supplies
๐Ÿงผ Hygiene items
๐Ÿ‘• Clothing
๐Ÿ€ Sporting equipment
๐ŸŽ Snacks

We are grateful for partners like Gift of Hope who help strengthen our schools and invest in the wellโ€‘being of local youth.

๐ŸŒŸMeet Our Jockey, Cy Bortner and Sugar ๐ŸŒŸ
After moving from the Kansas City area to Stone county in 1998, Cy spent 25 incredible years in marketing at Silver Dollar City before retiring for exactly one day. He quickly jumped into his next adventure as the Community Sponsorship Coordinator for Reeds Spring School District, where he works along side a passionate team connecting community and classroom.

Personally, Cy is all about the Jayhawks, Royals, Chiefs, Harley-Davidson rides, floating, camping and life down Indian Point. He's grateful for the neighbors, friends, and relationships he's built all across the Table Rock Lake area. Simply put: Life is good, and we are blessed to live here!

๐Ÿ‡Why Cy is Racing for Skaggs Foundation:
Giving back isn't just something Cy does- it's a core chapter of his life story. So when he was asked to join the Race for the Roses for Skaggs Foundation, the answer was easy: "Of course, I'll help!"
Cy believes in the power of community, the idea that if each person contributes even a little, Skaggs Foundation can do an extraordinary amount of good for local families. He's honored, energized, and ready to ride!
