Jameson Signing Helmet

Jameson Making His Mark

This last week I was humbled by the fact that a little boy Jameson, who won his battle with cancer this past year, would allow me to ride on behalf of him. Jameson Jones, a 5 year old from Prince George, signed my riding helmet and I was honored to receive encouragement for support by this little hero.

From the onset of the ‘Tour de North’ I have desired to ride on behalf of the Northern Children of BC who have battled cancer. Jameson has really encouraged me towards working and raising funds to help children dealing with cancer.

When I complete the ride to Prince Rupert, my plan is to ask all the tour riders to sign my helmet, and give it as a present to Jameson upon returning home.

Great news! The story that ran in the Free Press made the “Thumbs Up Story” of the week.  Glad to know that the community is so behind such a worthy cause.

Very proud to say as well, that I’ve starting to close in on the 50% mark of my fundraising goal. All thanks to the kind support of you all!
