Welcome to the PMC Westborough Kids Ride!
Please join us for
the second annual PMC Kids Ride-Westborough.
On Sunday, May
23, kids from ages 3 to 13 from Westborough and beyond are invited to come
together to bike to support cancer research and the Jimmy Fund. We will
be riding in honor of our 6-year-old Westborough Pedal Partner, Kayleigh
McCabe, who receives follow-up care at the Dana-Farber’s Jimmy Fund
Clinic. We will also be riding and fundraising in honor of the many
friends and family members who have fought, or still fight, the battle with
cancer. The
Children ages 3-13
are invited to register to ride. There will be a shorter loop, located at
WHS, for kids aged 3-~6 (or kids on 3+ wheels) and a larger, ¾ mile, loop (WHS
onto Charles St and back) for kids ages ~7-13 (or kids on 2 wheels). Biking
will take place from 10-11am, in a continuous loop or until the children
tire. Though not necessary, parents can
bike along with their children, if desired.
Older children, and
adults,
who would like to be involved, are encouraged to volunteer. There is a
role for everyone!
Riders and their
families, please join us at the end of the ride for a celebration
including refreshments, face painting, music, raffle/silent auction and
more.

PMC Kids Heavy
Hitters - New for 2010! The PMC Kids Rides are proud to announce the creation of a PMC
Kids Heavy Hitter program. Many of the riders who reach this level of
fundraising have a direct link to someone who has been affected by cancer, and
many others want to put in extra effort to help those who are affected by
cancer. Each motivated rider who raises $250 or more will be honored as a PMC
Kids Heavy Hitter. These PMC Kids Heavy
Hitters will be recognized with a special PMC Kids Heavy Hitter baseball hat
and other items to distinguish their achievement.
Sponsorship opportunities are
also available and encouraged. We are
kindly accepting individual and corporate donation items (sporting tickets,
gift cards, baskets, etc) to be included in the raffle and silent auction on
the day of the ride.
General donations to the ride can
also be made through the e-gifts button above. Or, mail your
raffle/auction donation or tax deductible check payable to “PMC Kids
Ride-Westborough” to
