Hello Everyone

As part of (and conclusion) of the Canada 150 bike Ride Caroline and I are aiming to raise a final $500 for Honour House to reach our $5000 goal.

You may know that--due in a major way to generous Tripleshot members--we helped raise $5200 for Soldier on (meeting our goal), and $4000 for Honour House. We are donating an additional $500 ourselves and are also donating via auction, 3 new with tags jerseys from 3 iconic rides--The first two Wounded Warriors (one signed by Romeo Dallaire) rides and the Canada150 ride.

So, for potentially as little as $90 you could own one of these iconic jerseys and at the same time donate to Honour House which supports Police, Fire, Military and other first responder heroes suffering from the devastating impacts of PTSD.

You can see these jerseys on display at North48 in Market Square. The auction is live an goes until December 15th.

To bid you can do so on Facebook on the links below, you can email me at rlhughes@shaw.ca, PM me or use this forum. If you would like this to remain private we can do that too (email or PM).

Thanks and Regards,
Ritchie & Caroline

JAKROO Canada has kindly and generously donated 5 jerseys to our auction! They were all sold at $75 each for a total of $375 to Honour House. This means that if we sell 2 of the jerseys at even $60 we will meet our goal.

Why Honour House? PTSD effects many (more than we know) Police, Firefighters, Parametics and other first responders. Honour House has a ranch in Kamloops totally dedicated to their rehabilitation. Their home in New West gives shelter to the same audience who themselves or their family members who may require shelter or treatment for any medical issue. It’s like a Ronald McDonald for first responders. What is really impressive is that it is almost totally run by passionate volunteers.

Thanks
Ritchie

Thank you Allan for “purchasing” the Canada150 jersey!

Not only have you made a donation to Honour House, ensuring we met our $5000 goal, but you have also donated this jersey to our TS Christmas Party.

Thanks Allan and Everyone
