4 Kids Brain
Tumor Fundraiser.
Note from Roy- Let
me thank all the Members that are going on this ride. I know
you have
to get up real early for this but this is that one day a year where we
put aside the "little things" that bother us and do what we can to help
these Kids with brain tumors and we hope that the Kids we saw last year
are still alive so we can see them this year.
This is a police-escorted ride!
If you are going on
this ride please let me know ASAP how much you are able to
contribute
so I can give the total to owner Craig Adams since he will match us up
to $5,000.
DEPARTING
AT 7 AM at the Camarillo Shell station
located on
Los Posas Rd. and the 101

We
donated $600 in 2009, our goal is to raise more in 2010.
Let me know when you
donate to
RFK so I can give you a $20 Gift Card for Cal
Coast Motorsports to
THANK YOU. They will have donuts, bread and drinks for us.
All checks should be made out to
RIDE FOR KIDS.
