Looking for Riders to Support Spinal Muscular Atrophy Research

May 12, 2012 marks the 7th year Calvary Riders TEAM of Motorcyclists for Jesus Ministries has sponsored the Ride to Fight Spinal Muscular Atrophy. This motorcycle ride benefits the largest supporter of Research into treatment of Spinal Muscular Atrophy, Families of SMA.

With the support of area businesses, the motorcycling community and a dedicated group of volunteers, we have raised over $6,000 to fund research into a cure for this disease that is the leading genetic killer of children under 2 years of age and is carried by 1 in 40 people.

The event is held in the Parking lot of Na’Brasa Brazilian steakhouse - Easton Rd and Jefferson Ave in Horsham, Pa on May 12, 2012. We will be there setting up about 8 A.M.

Registration is 9:30 - 10:30 a.m. and the ride rolls out at 10:45 - 11 a.m.

Na’Brasa Brazilian Steakhouse is supplying Coffee and there will be donuts for the participants.

After the scenic ride in Bucks County, the participants will be treated to Lunch supplied by Na’Brasa Brazilian steakhouse and Pizza Plaza Horsham.

The Rock band Romans Road will provide music and we will raise additional funds through raffling off of donated items. All funds raised go towards finding a cure for this deadly disease.

I can be reached at 215-260-4957 to make arrangements.
