The restaurant got back to me and indicated they can only hold one day for our event. Therefore, Sunday Sep 16th is a go rain or shine. Please look at Post #2 to make sure I have you down properly (including plus 1's) and do let me know if you are shine only.
We have a couple of people who donated items. See attached pics. A number of items were donated by Hendrick Racing, including two autographed Nascar baseball hats Team 48 and 24 Jimmie Johnson and William Byron. (thanks Tim (TnRZ06) - he will be driving in from the Stratford area for this cruise!) and Al (Walleyejack) has come through yet again - 3rd year in a row (thanks Al)! Gus (SpartaGus) has donated as well including an autographed C7 Team poster.
Raffle will be 1 ticket $10 and 3 for $20. The plan is to raffle off one item at a time to maximize the number of people getting something. Will do a 50/50 draw as well.
Please remember to donate online when you get a chance. Organizing the Rosseau Run in October is my way of saying thanks for your support.
I am looking to confirm numbers for the Cruise on Sunday, September 16.
As we are at 60+ people right now (the restaurant's max), could those that I have captured in the list below please confirm if you are still attending and if you will only attend if it is not raining. I need to give the restaurant accurate numbers in a few days so they can staff accordingly. The event will take place rain or shine. If you see your name at the bottom of this post please respond with "in rain or shine" or "shine only" or "no longer attending".
I will explore options if interest exceeds the 60 mark. I ask that you respond by Monday as that would give me enough time to book a second venue if needed or do some begging with Rhubarb
Finally, at the suggestion of a couple of folks, would you mind sharing the donation link with your friends to get a wider base of people to give to this great hospital (if you do not wish to do so, no worries, thought I would ask).
This November, our daughter Aleena will be having a life changing, 8 hour spine surgery at SickKids. We are a SickKids family. We feel very fortunate that the surgeon is one of the top 2 or 3 in the world and lucky to have such an incredible hospital so nearby.
The ball has started rolling for bigger plans for next year, so let's use this 3rd installment of the cruise to launch it into something even larger for next year (will provide some details on the vision at the event this year - would welcome any suggestions and connections to help).
Here is the donation link and please do share it within your circles if you can (for those who cannot attend, please also consider donating online and sharing the link within your circles):
Gift vouchers for labour costs to service your ride by Sami - Certified 310S Technician specializing in Corvettes / LS Engines (2x$200 and 3x$100 towards labour charges)
Mugs and 2 filled growlers from Brock Street Brewery (Al "Walleyejack")
Dan N Heather Polhamushave put out a challenge and offered up an awesome prize. For those donating $50 into Dan's hat, you will be getting a raffle ticket for a prize donated by Nothing But Water:
In rain or shine sorry about the delay responding. This is going to be an awesome ride and should have great charity results.
No worries Tim I knew you were in either way.
I think you will be the one to clock the most kms on the cruise so could you reset your trip odometer when you leave till the time you get back home?
Would be really cool to get a total count from everyone. Will post it up...am curious how many km we end up doing as a group.
