It is with heartbreak that we announce the passing of Mike Fickel, the astounding and hilarious co-founder of the RAC, who created an experience that many of us consider the greatest thing we have ever done with our kid.

He is survived by his beloved wife Kathy, his family and many, many friends. Mike requested that in lieu of flowers donations be made to the RAC to establish a scholarship fund in his name.

We'll love you forever, Mike. Thanks for the memories
