5th annual Motorcycle Ride for Autism Raises $13,704!

Another great Motorcycle Ride for Autism, Ottawa! Funds are still coming in but so far $13,704 has been raised for the children and their families!

Dave Kuhnle, ride organizer and tremendous supporter of our charity, thank you for all you do.  Thank you to Dave, his family and all the volunteers for helping run this wonderful event so smoothly each year! 

Thank you to all the riders who supported the Ride.  The weather wasn't looking great early in the day but we were fortunate that it cleared up and we didn't get rained on!

The top 3 fundraisers this year:

  • Rob Baldwin - $1,414
  • Jake Jacobson - $800
  • Keith Mehrer - $295

We were delighted to have Mayor Watson kick off the Ride again this year!  

Charlotte and Brandon, thank you for your strong advocacy for people with autism. The awareness you're creating is so important!

It was great to have The Gib Rozon Band playing - everyone really enjoyed their music. 

Check out Brian Dryden's articles in the Stittsville News before and after the event, and Laura Snyder Photography's amazing photos below! 

We look forward to seeing everybody again next year, THANK YOU!
