I’m Riding!!! Yes, today I’m very pleased to announce that the RCMP has granted me the sole civilian rider position in this year’s Tour De North RE/MAX Cops for Cancer Ride. From this day on, no more beer and baked potatoes, I’m in training! Please feel free to check in with my blog to see how the progress is going.

As a grandparent my heart goes out to all the children that are personally dealing with cancer. My family and I want to do our part to support the RCMP in their historic and ongoing quest for making our communities a better place. To do this, I want to help the RCMP in raising money to send these children to camp. These special warriors deserve to have fun and to be just like any other child. This is the personal motivation I have for riding.

If you would like to support me in this project, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

The Prince George Citizen has written an article regarding this in the Monday, June 29th paper. Feel free to check it out: Prince George Citizen - June 29, 2009 .

Happy Canada Day everyone!
