On May 3rd & 4th, 2008 World T.E.A.M. Sports (The Exceptional Athlete Matters), working with the Walter Reed Army Medical Center, The National Navy Medical Center, The Soldiers Angel Foundation, The Injured Marine Semper Fi Fund, and others will be hosting our 2008 Face of America Bike Ride, a two-day inclusive bike ride from Bethesda, MD to historic Gettysburg, PA to honor and assist servicemen and women who have been severely injured in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and any and all other servicemen and women as well.
See www.worldteamsports.org
The basics:
Saturday May 3rd
500 (yes five hundred) bicyclists leave Bethesda en route to Gettysburg.
The actual course has not been firmed up yet, but it might go along Route 28 to Route 85. Once the route is firm it will be passed around
Saturday evening they stay overnight in (or around) Thurmont Maryland.
Sunday morning May 4th they leave and arrive in Gettysburg when they get there.
Here is what is needed:
If you can volunteer, send Tommy Grunwell an email (listed below).
We want to set up a rest stop along the route outside of Frederick on Saturday and another one on Sunday towards Emmittsburg for the riders. (Bob Dinterman is aware of this).
Please put the word out about this event and if you or someone you know can be at either rest stop, at FCC or assist in any other capacity please let Tommy know ASAP so he can get his people straight before 0 hour.
Point of contact is Tommy at Grundoon627@gmail.com
