---------------------------------------------------------------------------

We will be holding a fund rasiser ride for Samantha on Sunday, Sept. 28th, 2008 At Lost Trails ATV Park
in the Poconos in Monroe Cty. Pa.

Samantha is the daughter of a fellow ATV'er who has been stricken with cancer. Her parents have 7 children
and they are falling behind in thier house hold bills and are now in fear of losing their home.

To make matters worse Sam's Dad just got his hours cut at work from 55 hours a week down to 40. He needs our help.
The ride will take place rain or shine. The park opens at 9:00 but you can arrive early and unload. Once yo unload
you can make your way down to the office to register.

There will be a tent outside of the office selling raffle tickets for ATV related items and also 50/50's.

This is a group effort involving several ATV Clubs and ATV web sites. The donation for the ride is: $ 35.00 pr rider.
$15.00 of that has to go to cover insurance costs. The rest goes right to little Samantha.

I except to have some dealers maybe even TV coverage from a local TV station. I also contacted Fishers ATV world to
see if they would come on board. If you would like more info.and directions to Lost Trails ATV Park go to:

It is times like this that we need to pull together for our fellow riders. TX is going to get some Fund Raising Account info for us. I know it is easier to look the other way. Someday you may need a hand from someone else, help comes from the place you would least expect it. Everyone reach into pockets and help out. 5 bucks is more than you would know for a family in need.
