Do to construction at the hope lodge which will be in progress at the time the hope ride is scheduled, we will not be able to converge on Tampa's Hope Lodge as originally planned. So we have no choice but to change our plans. We will have Several seperate lodge host sites as ride destinations. So surrounding area riders will ride to the destination of their choice, closest to where they live. The Hosting Locations will hold their own functions starting at 12 Noon. We will schedule a date when all proceeds collected will be presented to Tampa's Hope Lodge.

 

To summarize our plans, Lodges with motorcycle enthusiasts from all over the state may organize a ride to one of 4 “Hosting” lodges listed. Below you will find Suugested lodge assignments. The host lodge Should raise funds with events like raffles, 50/50 drawings, gift basket auctions etc. or even a poker run in an effort to raise funds for the American Cancer Society’s “Hope Lodge” in Tampa. Each participant should register for the ride. Registration is $10+ or become a ride sponsor for a donation of $20+ (see Chart attached[1]) Sponsors of $20+ get a ride patch and other perks. Then soon after there will be a date announced when we will have a meeting with the team at the Tampa Hope Lodge and we will present them with the monies and provide photo opportunities for all donors (sponsors) of a certain level of sponsorship or higher.
