The fifth annual Joy Ride was another success! We set our goal at raising $20,000, once again, for the children at Bienvenidos and we met that goal! Thanks to a whole bunch of people opening their hearts (and their wallets). Please take a look at the logos on this page and also when you get to the bottom of the page click on "Past Sponsors" then read through the list and make a mental note that these are very charitable people/organizations. If you are given a chance to use any of their services or patronize any of their establishments, please do.

Now it's time to mark your calendar for the sixth annual Joy Ride. Click on the pre-register link towards the bottom of this page and sign up for the ride. It's not too early to sign up so sign up now. Once again the Joy Ride will be a poker run with a party at the final destination. It will begin with a pancake breakfast at the West Covina Elks Lodge located at 841 West Merced Avenue in West Covina. Sign in will be from 8:00am - 10:00am. The run will be approximately 75 miles long and will finish at the Eagles Lodge in Azusa. The price for the run is $25 per person or $40 per couple (riding 2-up). Your entry fee will include breakfast, lunch, the poker run with cash prizes, a run pin (for the 1st 300 to sign up), a run t-shirt (for those that pre-register before June 15th) and the destination party which will include the Stan West Band, raffles, games, an opportunity to have your picture taken with Carrie Stroup (model/actress and Miss Budweiser) and a $500/$300/$100 wet t-shirt contest!

This is a benefit ride and the proceeds will be going to "Bienvenidos". Please click on the Bienvenidos logo to learn more about the organization.
