Hi CVC,
Our very own CVC member, Dawn Foley, is co-founder of the local ALS ride
which takes place on May 4th, (just a few weeks away). This was a
fantastic, well-supported ride which many of our riders participated in
last year. I hope to see many more of you out there this year. The
following are Dawn's words.
April of 2015 changed my life forever. My husband was diagnosed with ALS.
When you receive this diagnoses, the doctor tells you to get your affairs
in order. There is no cure and this is a death sentence. Most people live 2
to 5 years. For some it's only months. We were lucky in the sense Niall
lived for 6 1/2 years. We were not the couple to just sit on that news. We
cofounded the SoCal Ride to Defeat ALS. We wanted to raise awareness and
funds to help find a cure. We wanted to help families navigate this
dreadful disease.
This is the 8th annual So Cal Ride and Rally. I continue to raise funds for
research, legislative and family care services. All funds raised stay here
in California and also help to fund trials and research.
Please join me on May 4th at Dos Vientos Park to ride or hike. You may also
donate to my team if you cannot join us.
Please see the following link for registration, donations, and for
volunteer opportunities. .

Here is an opportunity for a short volunteer ride to lead runners.
This is for the Autism Society of Ventura County. She is planning an
annual Aut2Run event, held this upcoming April on the 28th.
This event is held annually in Camarillo, California. It helps fund a
nonprofit for the rest of the year. ASVC provides resources and support to
individuals and families with Autism in Ventura County.
We are still in need of volunteers to run this event. I am reaching out to
the Bike Shop as we are in need of a few more lead cyclists and sweepers.
I am hoping you may have connections with cyclists who may have an interest
in supporting our cause and have availability on April 28th.
There are a variety of volunteer opportunities for this event, all of which
you can find HERE
