Glenn II & Lori

The two cousins follow in their respective father’s footsteps, the legendary Losey Brothers – Glenn and Lester, as they become second generation Rural Olympics Hall of Fame Inductees.  Glenn “#2” and Lori have been racing in their signature orange Jeep and orange t-shirts in the Antique Auto Potato Race since 1995, while their large Losey rooting section – all in orange shirts of course – cheer them on.  In the 24 starts from 1995 through 2018 they have finished in the top 3 places 14 times, taking home first place 8 times, including consecutive victories in 2017 and 2018.

Both have been volunteers in the Rural Olympics Hall of Fame inside the AV Rural Museum.  Lori taking care of video creation and conversion to digital, and Glenn working with his whole family setting up and maintaining displays, as well as serving as a docent during the AV Fair.  Glenn is also a member of the Rural Olympics Committee.
