I’ve had a lot of people offering to help out with the ride, especially with things like giveaways, swag, etc.
So what I’ve decided to do is put together some prizes for people on the ride. A bit more of a reason to come out and have a good time.
What we’re going to do is an optional, by-donation poker rally. So basically for a minimum of $5, you can play. We’ll have five stops along the way, every stop you’ll come to me (Marc) and pick a card. Take a photo of each card with your phone and whoever gets the best hand at the end of the ride will win!
We’ll also have prizes for worst hand (like a 2, 4,5 and J), best Women/Trans/Femme hand (if this hand is the best overall, the winner will also win “best hand”) and maybe some others, depending on how many prizes we get donated.
The money will likely go to a very deserving charity. Most likely UNHCR’s Ukraine Emergency fund, or — depending on how things go over the next few months, something more local.
That being said, we’ll need some stuff for prizes.
Sponsors
If you have reached out to me in the last little bit about sponsoring the ride in some way, this is for you. We’re looking for companies/people/shops/whatever to help donate some prizes to make this a good time. This can be anything from some swag, some homemade gear, some cash for beer/lacroix, a gift cert. to a restaurant in Cumberland (basically paying for someone’s dinner) or anything else. We need at least three prizes, but more would be sick. If we get a bunch of stuff, we can always bundle some things together.
Another thing I wanted to do is put together a gift for everyone who comes out. That way nobody goes home without at least a lil something. Let me know if you’d be able to help out with something like that as well.
