The folks at Cedar Community gave me the privilege of seeing this documentary, Alive Inside, at the Milwaukee Film Festival. It inspired me. My goal in the 2015 Italy tour is to raise enough money to provide iPods and music for folks that suffer Alzheimer’s and dementia in West Bend and Washington County.
Sponsorship proposal to be released shortly.
The big announcement has been made and the 2015 Amazing Ride for Alzheimer’s will tour Italy. Many thanks to Michael Albiero for the updated logo. More information coming soon.
If you would like to be part of this year’s tour – contact Judy Steffes at 262-334-4526. A list of sponsorship levels will be available shortly. All money raised benefits exercise and entertainment at Cedar Community.
It’s been a whirlwind of emotions since returning home – – elation from the accomplishment of pedaling 1,031 miles, memories of wonderful people and beautiful scenery, realization of the fatigue and soreness from the challenging hills followed by more hills, and the comfort of being home and knowing I helped raise nearly $30,000 this tour for Alzheimer’s.
I ran into tour sponsor Helen Reinke upon my return. “What’s next,” was her immediate question.
I will keep you posted. I’m sure there’s another tour in the future – the planning has only just begun.
A mighty thanks to all the sponsors, supporters and my web editor – I could not have done it without you!
