Editorial Staff

The National Chiropractic Mutual Insurance Company (NCMIC) presented the Chiropractic Centennial Foundation (CCF) with a check for $100,000 at the CCF's board meeting in Chicago on February 18th. This is the first disbursement of the $300,000 that NCMIC pledged to the CCF, making it the first Elite Club Super Sponsor (see the February 12th issue of "DC").

"NCMIC considers itself part of the chiropractic family," said company Executive Vice President Larry Rister. "If it wasn't for chiropractic, we wouldn't be in business. We are supportive of any major event in chiropractic and the Grand Celebration is a premier event."

Standard Process Labs, Inc., of Wisconsin, has also pledged $300,000 to the Centennial Foundation, making it the second Elite Club Super Sponsor.
