max power Posted June 22, 2010 Report Share Posted June 22, 2010 (edited) Hey guys, As I'm sure most of you know, my father just passed from brain cancer. FairHope Hospice and Pickering House provided unbelievably excellent care for him in his final weeks. They are a beautiful non-profit facility and depend alot on volunteers and donations. No one is turned away for lack of money, and thats what 100% of the donations are used for. I can not say enough about how wonderful this facility and its staff is to its patients and their families. I know most of us stay away from poker runs, but please consider turning out for this event. Lets make this an OR event to remember. I cant think of a better cause.More details to follow, but here is what I have so far:WHAT: Poker Run for Fairhope Hospice/Pickering HouseWHEN: Saturday July 31 @ 10:00 START: Old Town Tavern 10985 Winchester Rd. Canal Winchester 43110Breakfast provided. Edited July 16, 2010 by max power Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jporter12 Posted June 23, 2010 Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 Bump it up closer to that date. I'm going to try to remember it so that nothing else gets scheduled that I would need to bail on, because I have every intention of making it out to this.

I'll come down for this. They totally cared for Dad during his last few weeks. Isaac will be with me' date=' so I may trailer down, do the ride and then trailer back. It'll depend on how comfortable he is on the bike, but I'm in.[/quote']That's my birthday ' date=' I/we should be able to make it.[/quote']Count me in. Ride or not I will make a stop.Awesome!! Glad to see some peeps wanting to support a great cause. There is lots of money raised for cancer research, but not much for the people who have it. This will help those who have cancer and less than adequate insurance tremendously and help the hospice keep up its motto of "nobody gets turned away".I will be bumping the hell out of this and pimping it hard. The Pickering House and FairHope Hospice deserves all the help we can give them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
