All right, Vogel is over, everybody is well rested and it is time for the us to wrap up our St. Jude drive for 2009. I want to thank everyone who helped make this a very successful year for Ventureriders and St. Jude Children's Hospital. So far we have over $3200.00 to present them with thanks to the deep pockets of our members. The ride will take place on Sept. 12, 2009. We will be meeting at the Flying J Truck Stop in W. Memphis, Ark. It is located at the junction of I-55 & I-40, which is the last exit before you cross the Mississippi River into Memphis, Tn. We will meet there at 11:00 am in the parking lot, then we will have lunch in the Flying J, from there it is a 3-4 mile ride across the river to Memphis, Tn. where we will be taking a tour of St. Jude Children's Hospital. This is a fantastic place to see, you wont believe you are in a hospital, it looks more like a day care center. After the tour if you would like, some of us will be going down to Tunica, Ms. and we can eat at one of the fine buffets at Harrah's Casino and whatever else you might try your hand at there. One little reminder here, if you want to bring some kind of small gift, remember no stuffed animals, but coloring books, crayons, puzzles, crosswords, books are things they could use. I know we discussed teddy bears, but they just cant take a chance on those, due to the weak immune systems these kids have. Or if you or your company would like to make a donation, please make the checks out to St. Jude Children's Hospital. A donation or prize is not required to make this ride. Thanks to all again and look forward to seeing you at The 3rd Annual St. Jude/Mean Dog Memorial Ride.

It looks like door prizes for Vogel may not be as plentiful this year as they were at the last event in 2007. I have sent out letters of request to all the same vendors as last time and a few new ones but response has been slow to put it mildly......Some members here have donated some items and that is much appreciated. I finally got one item in today and its probably going to be the best door prize to give away. It is from Sean Morgan at Morgan Carbtune..........he was gracious enuff to donate a Carbtune Pro to our cause. So thanks to Sean and Morgan Carbtune for their generous contribution.........Some lucky person will go home with a nice reminder from Vogel. If anyone can bring some t-shirts from their local dealers those would make great door prizes or t shirt swap like Muffinman did at the last event. Just drop me a line if you have something or know of someone who might be willing do donate to a very good cause, remember, after expenses, all profits go to St. Jude Children's Hospital.

For anyone who may be interested, Next Sunday November 4 is the CHOP toy run. It is one of the greatest events of the year. For the last few years, it has drawn in excess of 100,000 bikes and provides enough toys to supply the hospital and local childrens charities for the entire year. The meet point is on Columbus Blvd by Penn's Landing right off RT 95. the gathering starts at about 9:00 am and the parade kicks off at 12:00 noon and proceeds through the city with all roads being blocked off for the event and ends at the hospital where you drop off your toy and are greeted by hundreds of smiling children who don't often have much to cheer them up. Come one come all, then go home and give your kids a big hug and be glad you have your problems and not theirs. I hope you'll excuse me now as I get off my soap box, but this event is very close to my heart as I have first hand experience with the care provided at this facility to some of the sickest children in the world.
