Join
fellow motorcycle riding enthusiasts and water and wastewater professionals (The
Water Buffalos), on the motorcycle ride to end all rides and be part
of something very special. The ride begins from several locations across
the US and Canada and descends on Chicago in time for the AWWA
National Conference in June 2010, all in the spirit of raising money
and awareness for Water
For People. We had an incredible inaugural ride to the AWWA 2006 convention in San Antonio. Great roads, wonderful scenery, and many new found friendships. All the while raising nearly $20,000 in donations! The second annual ride to Toronto in 2007 was even better and we raised approximately $42,000. Our third ride took us to Atlanta in 2008 where we managed to raise over $80,000!! Last year, we rode to San Diego for our fourth annual ride where we raised $50,000. To date, the Water Buffalos have raised a total of $192,000!! This year's ride to Chicago promises to be the best yet. I have been asked several times, “Why are we doing this?” Here is my easy answer: To participate in the ride we ask each rider and passenger to raise money for Water for People. Now with the knowledge that Water for People can change the lives of an entire village for around $5,000, how fantastic will it be to be a part of a ride that hands over a check of more that $100,000 to Water for People!! We can make a difference. Just imagine yourself rumbling in with the group, en masse, into Chicago on a beautiful Saturday afternoon (June 19, 2010), with all of us wearing water blue denim vests with a stitched Water Buffalo State/Province Chapter patch on the back. The buzz around the conference will never be the same! REMEMBER THIS RIDE IS HEADED TOWARD CHICAGO WHICH IS IN THE HEART OF NORTH AMERICA AND IS ONLY THREE DAYS RIDE FROM ANYWHERE. THERE'S NO EXCUSE NOT TO RIDE WITH US THIS YEAR!! |
