Ok Gents. It is that time of year again. [ame=http://www.botl.org/community/forums/showthread.php?t=26011]Every spring[/ame] I do fundraising for the Ride for Kids. The Ride for Kids raises money every year for the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation of the US. Last year was great, I raised over $3000 for the second year in a row. A recap of last years event can be seen here: http://mattscigar.com/2009/05/04/ride-for-kids-2009-recap-the-winners/. BOTL's own EODCole was one of my lucky winners last year. Thanks again Adam.
This year I have enlisted the help of CigarsDirect.com, Sam Leccia, and Empire Cigars of Raleigh to help me raise some money. I am even throwing in some prizes from my personal stash. My goal this year is even bigger than it has been in the past. I want to raise $5000 this year and become a Ride for Kids Champion. If I can do it, I'll have a chance at the event to get up on stage and talk about my fund raising efforts and will have a chance to tell 750+ people how generous the cigar community really is. With a goal this large I really need every dime I can get so please help if you can. You may just win some sweet cigars in the process.
