Junk Yard Dogs: Your presence is requested at the Fire Fighters Burn Fund Bicycle Auction

Portage la Prairie firefighter Curtis Rance (left) and fire chief Phil Carpenter pose with two bikes that are up for auction on May 4 at 10 a.m. at the fire hall. Last year the deparment sold 120 bikes raising about $3,500.

I wanted to make you aware of a unique opportunity to promote our club as well as assist a worthy cause.

 

The annual Fire Fighters Burn Fund Bicycle Auction will take place this Saturday, May 4th, 2013 at the Portage Fire Station, 124 - 3rd Street NE. 

 The auction begins at 10AM with bikes being displayed as early as 9AM. 

 I think this would be a great opportunity for members to show up on their bikes, wearing their JYD jerseys and their helmets (of course) and promote the club with our presence.

There will also be volunteer opportunities during the auction, so showing up would be a good opportunity to contribute to the cycling community and the community at large.

Please consider coming out even for a short time - much appreciated.
