We have a number of great organizations in Riverside that support our community, our youth, and our schools. Recently, we had the integration of 2 of them. Annually the Greater Riverside Chambers of Commerce sponsors their year-long leadership program which culminates in a community project sponsored by the members of their class/team. THIS year the group is undertaking a project to raise money for our education foundation (REEF -- Riverside Educational Enrichment Foundation) along with the Alvord USD education foundation.
This year's project is the Citrus Classic Bike Ride on Sunday, October 17th in Riverside, of course. The Citrus Classic slogan is: Education -- Ride of a Lifetime. As a rider you have a choice of options from the Kiddie Ride to 101 mile Century Ride (with middle distances of 7, 27, and 54 mile rides). So with all those options there is something there for ALL of us (actually I am thinking of one of middle distances for myself). AND it supports REEF and our students.
Sandy Ramirez, and several other Leadership Riverside attendees have brought this to my attention. I am planning to be there and I hope that you and your family will be there as well. It should be a great time. You can see the options and sign-up for this event at: http://www.riversideca.gov/citrusclassic/
I just signed my family up for the ride. Thanks for informing us of this great Riverside event.
