2007 Great Ride 'n' Stride

The bmt4cathy team will be participating in the New Hamburg Great Ride 'n' Stride this year on Sunday, April 29th, 2007.

We formed the bmt4cathy team in honour of Cathy and hope to increase awareness and encourage participation on a larger scale than we could with individual efforts alone. We would like you to join our team and come out to the Ride 'n' Stride. If you are unable to participate, please consider sponsoring us.

Please click on the links below to join the bmt4cathy team or to sponsor us by making a donation online to the Canadian Cancer Society. You'll get a tax receipt back by e-mail. E-mail me at chris@bmt4cathy.com if you have any questions or if you are not comfortable with donating online.

Please use the following link to join us or pledge/sponsor us:

Please note - the Canadian Cancer Society website does not directly support team registrations this year, so after you sign up, send me an email and I will add your name to the team roster. After the Ride, the total pledges from all team members will be pooled and they will let us know how much we raised.

Thanks for your support, and I hope to see you at the ride!
