In addition to competing in the powder-puff race, Kryston will also be singing the National Anthem during opening ceremonies. Kryston\u2019s first experiences singing the National Anthem began at a young age singing at opening ceremonies for her daredevil father Kaptain Robbie Knievel, and have continued professionally as a singer of the National Anthem for the Chicago Bulls Basketball Team, and as a lead singer with the Chicago band De Javu. An original \u201cEvel Knievel\u201d custom chopper \u2019 will be on display during the event.
