3rd Annual Ashlee’s Ride is June 27, 2009!! Be there!!!
This page is dedicated to my daughter Ashlee, who was diagnosed with a mitochondrial disease in 1989 and then went to live with the angels in 1990.
Every year Ashlee’s Ride sponsors a child in need and has a fundraiser on their behalf.
Part of the proceeds from Ashlee’s Ride will go the United Mitochondrial Disease Foundation in Ashlee’s memory. They are a wonderful organization that helps patients with mitochondrial diseases.
Blue River Band will provide entertainment at the end of the ride. BRB has been with Ashlee’s Ride from day one and I appreciate and love them so much. Thank you BRB!
WFMS has already placed it on the calendar so Stu and the Friends & Neighbors crew will be there again for Ashlee’s Ride to get us started! We thank them for being a part of this madness again.
As an added bonus....we will have Colts Cheerleaders at Ashlee's Ride this year!
Last year we had a great turnout (THANK YOU FOR HELPING GET YEVETTE A VAN WITH A WHEELCHAIR LIFT!)and hope for Ashlee’s Ride to be even bigger and better this year! What better day can you ask for to go out and ride, spend time with friends, make new friends, have great entertainment and food, and still help a child in need!
At this point of planning, we don’t have the route made out yet but do know that Ashlee’s Ride will start at Southside Harley Davidson and we thank them for their support of our cause. If you need apparel or accessories for your bike, I hope you will take your business to Southside Harley Davidson!
Keep your eye on this page for updates!!
