SELINSGROVE --The outpouring of support from the local community contiunes for injured sprint car driver Cody Keller.

On Wednesday and Thursday, Machine Heads Tattoo Palor of Shamokin Dam held a 24-hour tattoo-a-thon to raise money to help offset his medical expenses.

Office manager Laura Grissinger and former racer and tattoo artist Russ Kinslow collaborated on the idea to help Cody.

"The day we heard he got hurt, we wanted decided to help out," Kinslow said. "I remember Cody racing at Lil' Greenwood Speedway and the Kellers are wonderful people."

The business has received donations for more than a dozen local businesses as well as tattoo suppliers from as far away as Canada.

"I remember the support my family received when our house burned down in 1993," Grissinger said. "I'm in a position where I can make a difference in somebody else's life. We want to show the community we have heart as well, and that we are here to help the community in times of need."

Machine Heads is donating 50 percent of all tattoo proceeds to the Kellers along with money collected from the raffle and food donations.

Keller, of Selinsgrove, is recuperating at home from injuries he sustained in an April 18 racing accident at Selinsgrove Speedway. Keller, 18, a high school senior, was released from the Geisinger Medical Center in Danville on Monday afternoon. Cards can reach Keller at Keller's Auto Body, PO Box 4, Selinsgrove, PA 17870.
