We are pleased to announce
that the third annual “Sled Ride of Hope” raised $19,500.00 for Prostate Cancer
Research and Awareness. This years funds will go to The Canadian Prostate
Research Foundation of Canada and the Canadian Prostate Cancer Network.
On
Saturday, Feb. 16th 85 sledders from across Ontario enjoyed
perfectly groomed trails provided by The Baxter Snow Riders Club. The weather
was perfect for a day of riding and we had riders from young to old.
After
the ride we had fundraising activities held at the Baxter Ward Community Center
which included a silent auction, raffles and a dinner supplied by Moose
Winooski’s of Barrie and a dance once again hosted by Jodi Gaskell. We also had
individual photos of our participants in frames for sale
for keep sakes.
Feedback
so far from the participants has been overwhelmingly positive and most say they
will return next year!
The
Prostate Extreme Team would like to thank all our wonderful volunteers and
supporters and especially our most generous sponsors for contributing their products and
services without their support these events would NOT be possible.
A special thank you to Factory Recreation, Royal
Distributing, Moose Winooski's and Somerset Graphics, without your support we would not be able
to continue our fight!
