Wallingford Firefighters Raise Money for Cancer Center

May 06, 2013

The firefighters of the Wallingford Fire Department are again gearing up for an exciting fundraiser that will benefit MidState's cancer center. The fundraiser, a motorcycle poker run, was initiated by late Wallingford firefighter and former ED employee, Rick Garrison. This year it will be held in his honor.

The poker run is set for Sunday, June 9; beginning at 8:30 a.m. Riders who wish to participate will enjoy 90 miles of scenic Connecticut with stops at the North Branford Fire Department, Gillette Castle, Winchester's, and MidState Medical Center. The ride will conclude with a picnic back at PNA Park in Wallingford. There will be a DJ, moonwalk for the kids, 50/50 raffle and more.

Cost is $25 per rider or $35 for a rider with a passenger, $10 for picnic only. For more information, please contact Jeremy Garrison at 203.694.8732 or info@ridersforrick.com.
