WeCAN “Wheels 4 Meals” Bicycle Ride Fundraiser
Enjoy the Dakota Trail and give to Meals on Wheels too! Saturday, May 18th 11:00 am – 2:00 pm (registration 11 am to 12 noon). Ride your bike from the Mound Transit Station to St. Bonifacius and back to raise funds for your local Meals on Wheels program.
Riders will have the chance to win prizes, including two new kids bikes, play a round of mini golf or visit the St. Boni Bistro.
Riders will gather support via donations gathered on a “pledge form” and bring it to the event. Riders pay a registration fee of $5.50 or a family registration fee of $15 (one pledge form per family fee). Pledge forms can also be found at the Westonka Library or the WeCAN office. Challenge your friends to pledge or just come for the ride which still supports your local Meals on Wheels program.
Did you know that our neighborhood program delivers nearly 9000 meals every year and that each meal cost is $5.50? Help your neighbors stay healthy and in their own homes by joining us!
