Lindsay McCullough helped County Auditor Chris Sycks earn second place in the first adult tricy-

was third. Proceeds from the event went to United Way of Coshocton County.
COSHOCTON – His helmet was covered
in silly string, but that didn’t stop
Judge Bob Batchelor from zoom-
ing first across the finish line in the
adult tricycle race for county elected
officials.
The Oct. 23 race on the Fourth
Street side of the courthouse was
organized by the Coshocton County
Commissioners office as a fundraiser
for United Way of Coshocton County.
Batchelor beat out County Recorder
Susan Turner and Sheriff Tim Rogers
for his spot in the finals.
“I have zero strategy (going into
the finals),” he said. “I just want to
finish, stay on the vehicle and try not
to crash.”
Batchelor was joined by County
Auditor Chris Sycks who defeated
County Prosecutor Jason Given and
Commissioner Curtis Lee and Judge
Van Blanchard who beat out Com-
missioners Dane Shryock and Gary
Fischer.
Sycks’ pit crew of staff members
Amy Finton and Lindsay McCullough
went all out with suits that coordinat-
ed with Sycks racing jacket. They also
played a big role in getting her to the
finals.
