The Calgary Motorcycle Ride For Dad has been working non-stop since the end of the 2014 ride, preparing for this year's event. It's a lot of work and these dedicated and diligent volunteers work hard to make sure the ride is a lot of fun and successful for both the riders, as well as the Prostate Cancer Centre as the beneficiary of the fundraiser.
Despite the hours spent getting ready for this year's ride, the team wanted to do something fun and raise a bit more cash for the cause, so they put on a "Games Day" at Schanks South in Calgary and invited guests to come and play. A ticket tot eh event got you some great grub and for a few dollars per game, contestants could try their hand at virtual golf, mini-golf, pool and other pub play. There were some great silent auction items and Ang and Troy, from
Ride Stop n Go, organized the crew to sell 50/50 tickets. Two separate draws raised $1000 along, plus proceeds from the games and silent auction items raised another $2500, so all in all it was a great success and a lot of fun.
