Brayton and his CRF450R will feature red, white and blue theme to raise awareness for high school athletic programs in need

Team Honda Muscle Milk's Justin Brayton will don patriotic themed gear at Round 6 of the 2012 Lucas Oil AMA Pro Motocross race at Redbud on Saturday, July 7 for the Fourth of July holiday weekend race.  Brayton's patriotic gear will include custom red, white and blue fork guards and a custom painted helmet.  The patriotic design will help raise awareness for the Muscle Milk Recovery Grant Program which will provide up to $250,000 in grants to help rebuild and revitalize high school athletic programs around the country. 

"I always love racing at RedBud because it's cool to see how the fans get into the Fourth of July weekend," said Brayton.  "It's really cool to support the Muscle Milk Recovery Grant Program.  Going to high school in Iowa you see how big high school sports are, so I definitely understand the importance."   

The Muscle Milk Recovery Grant Program will award up to $25,000 per submission to programs that show a financial hardship outlined in the application process.  Applicants must be at least 14 years old and can nominate the high school of their choice on the Muscle Milk Facebook page (www.facebook.com/musclemilk) where they will be required to submit a written statement outlining their program's needs, provide photos that support their request and will have the option to upload a video link to help further tell their story.  Submissions will be accepted through November 20, 2012 and recipients will be notified in January 2013. 

In conjunction with the launch of the Muscle Milk Recovery Grant Program, Muscle Milk also debuted limited edition packaging that includes a red, white and blue theme.  A portion of sales from the patriotic packaging will go toward funding the Recovery Grant Program.
