Falcons MC Request Help With a Ride to Support Our Troops

March 10, 2010 in Events, volunteering

The Falcons Motorcycle Club is made up of currently serving or retired members of the Canadian Armed Forces.

They have requested 10 to 20 cadets to help with their B.E.S.T. (Bikers Everywhere Supporting our Troops) poker run on May 15, 2010 in support of our troops and several great charities. In return, a portion of the procedes will be donated to the Airdrie Army Cadets. The cadets will be supervised and will be helping at checkpoints along the ride. They will not be helping anywhere that there is alcohol.

The Falcons MC conducts charitable events such as the Motorcycle Poker rides and other events to support military charities across Canada. The Falcons MC Support T- Shirts and support gear are sold to allow them to continue to run events to raise these funds for registered Military charities and Military support agencies. They raise funds for charities that support Military Troops who are currently serving and their families. The Falcons MC also supports Veteran organizations or Charities that help Children.
