Update 4----04/25
I was in contact with the Charlton Chief of Police "Chief Pervier" today.
I'm having a difficult time securing a local off-road trail to host the event.
Over the weekend, I spent some time mapping out a path of where I’d like to propose a “parade style” event ride.
I proposed a 5 mile "on road" loop starting & finishing at the Charlton Middle School. The school parking lot would serve as an ideal location because it could accommodate the vehicles and BBQ afterwards... but there are a few other "logistical" issues to work out that may prevent this proposal.
The Chief and I are continuing our discussions in regards to the "logistics" of having the PD involved in this parade proposal.
Some aspects that need to be considered for example; involving the Police Union, hiring off duty Officers to assist in the drive / escort and other environmental considerations...
The Chief had some other great ideas which I'll be looking into over the following days...
On another note-
I have received many donations!
I'm working hard at putting together a "Supporter List" and it should be posted soon.
Let’s continue to get the word out, email friends and family... post on your facebook page and other atv forums.
Big thumbs up to the mods over at the connection also- :)
And thank-you everyone for contributing to this charity!
