H.I.S. Home 300 – June 22-27, 2009

Springfield Bicycle Club member Mary Grant is leading the Southern Route of the H.I.S. Home 300, an annual 6-day, 300 mile bicycle ride to benefit H.I.S. Home for Children, an orphanage in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Cyclists will ride from Monticello, IL, to Harrod, OH, joining forces with cyclists on the Northern Route on the last day, and arriving in Harrod on June 27, just in time for a 10th anniversary celebration with H.I.S. Home founders, Hal & Chris Nungester. The Southern Route is open to the first 20 cyclists, age 14 and up, who raise a minimum of $500 in pledges for H.I.S. Home.

Mary is especially hoping for more young cyclists but adults are OK too.  There are still 10 spaces still open as of mid-March.
