'ch Signal -Star
is month brings the third
al tour through Huron
ty's countryside in support
Children's Aid Society.
The Huron County Toy Ride
is all set to take off on October
16, and marks the launch of the
Huron -Perth CAS Christmas
Bureau season. Event organizer
Don Broadfoot says what better
way to enjoy the sights of the
Huron autumn than on board a
bike in support of kids.
"It gives an opportunity for
motorcyclists to show they care
in their community," Broadfoot
said September 30. "We didn't
think we'd be able to ride
around the Square in Goderich, but it
turn out we can so it's an opportunity
to also take in what has happened in
the community."
To take part, riders are asked to
meet at the Canadian Tire parking lot
area armed with a new, unwrapped
toy at 12 noon before the pack departs.
With the help of numerous event
sponsors including A&W, the Albion
Hotel, Canadian Tire, Crabby Joe's and
Platnum Powersports, there will be
food specials following the ride, as
well as prizes for the `Best Decorated
Motorcycle."
Its inaugural launch in 2009 resulted
in 75 motorcycles, 93 riders and a
loaded pickup bed filled with new
toys. In 2010, more than 120
motorcycles took part, and Broadfoot
said he hopes 2011 will be even more
successful. The Ride will proceed rain
or shine.

519-233-9110 between 10 a.m. and 6
p.m.
