MIA a Tour of Duty ride takes over Seaforth Legion Whitney South Huron Expositor The Seaforth Legion played base camp for the annual Tour of Duty Motorcycle Ride on the morning of Aug. 9. The ride is an event organized by the Association of Bikers for Awareness Training and Education (A.B.A.T.E.) chapter 11 and has served as a fund- raiser for the Wounded Warriors pro- ject for the past seven years. According to the group's website, the fund started in 2006 and supports all Canadian Forces members wounded during operations and aims to improve the general morale and welfare of the soldiers and their families by working through first-line caregivers, medical staff, chaplains and assisting officers. For chapter president Leroy Hern, the idea for the ride was just a good thing to do.
