Jack's Update  Update  #42    December 2003

Sunday!  Sunday!!  SUNDAY!!!
...to quote our friend Jan Gabriel

The 26th Annual  

Chicagoland Toys for Tots Motorcycle Parade

9:30am  Sunday, December 7, 2003
The Dan Ryan Woods - 83rd Street and Western Avenue

This is it! The big day is almost here. 

This Sunday, motorcyclists from across America will come to Chicago to participate in a remarkable motorcycle event.  The Chicagoland Toys for Tots Motorcycle Parade has become the favorite run of riders everywhere.  This is when the City of Big Shoulders becomes the City of Big Hearted Bikers.

This Sunday, thousands of devoted, loyal riders will brave the Chicago weather, to ride together, to show the world the fun of motorcycle riding and the joy of helping others.  

The USMCR Toys for Tots Foundation has declared The Chicago TFT Motorcycle Parade to be the "oldest and largest" Toys for Tots motorcycle run held anywhere in the United States, and The Chicago TFT Motorcycle Parade is the nation's largest contributor of toys to the USMCR Toys for Tots Program.

If you are a motorcycle rider, bring a new toy and join us.  Come to The Dan Ryan Woods and be part of "The World's Greatest Motorcycle Parade".

If you don't ride, you can still be part of the fun.  Just bring a new toy to Western Avenue, cheer on the riders, and give them your gifts. 

Every child deserves a toy at Christmas

If you plan to ride in The Parade, please remember;

 Only motorcycles are allowed in The Parade.
No ATVs or Quads will be permitted.
 
Do not donate stuffed animals. Do not gift wrap toys.

Obey the Parade Volunteers.

Party after The Parade.

Ride carefully.

Have a great time.
