Welcome to the PMC Concord Kids Ride!

On Sunday, June 13, 2010, PMC Kids Rides will be coming to Concord for the third time at the picturesque Middlesex School. Kids ages 5 – 15 are invited to ride either a 1, 5, 10, or 15 mile route to raise money for the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute's Jimmy Fund while their families cheer them on and enjoy the event. The 15-mile route is the 5-mile route 3 times. All registered riders will receive a PMC Kids t-shirt and water bottle.

In the first two years of this ride, we have raised close to $100,000. With your help, we look forward to making a significant contribution again in 2010. This year the PMC Kids Rides will launch a PMC Kids Heavy Hitter program to recognize riders who raise $250 or more. Go to fundraising tips to learn more about what you can do to raise money for the fight against cancer. We encourage online donations or bringing checks the day of the event.

Throughout the day there will be music and activities including an area for siblings under 5 who can bring their bikes to decorate and ride after the main event. After the ride there will be a party with refreshments, music, a kids art show and more!

Mission:
The mission of PMC Concord Kids Ride is to include young cyclists in the Pan-Massachusetts Challenge (PMC) mission of raising money for cancer research and treatment at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute through its Jimmy Fund. The program engages youth in philanthropy and teaches them the value of working for the benefit of others. The ride also promotes athletic fitness and physical activity among youth.
