In September 2011 over 6 days, forty-four riders cycled from Toronto to Montreal, raising net revenue of more than $70,000. The group enjoyed their days cycling followed by once-in-a-lifetime experiences that included dining at Officers\u2019 Messes at military bases across Ontario, Navy search and rescue exercises in RHIB inflatable boats, simulated hands-on weapons firing drills and more.<\/p>\n

Joe Gagnon, of Westmount Moving and Storage, invited staff members to join him for the ride, even giving employees who wanted to participate the week off work. To meet the fundraising requirements, the group held a corporate golf tournament, raising $30,000 to cover everyone\u2019s pledges.<\/p>\n

We thank all riders and donors for their participation and commitment to Canada\u2019s military families, with special thanks to North American Moving Services for continued involvement in and outstanding support of this event.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
