On Sunday, September 13, join cyclists from across Ontario at the annual Ride for Karen and help raise money to send children with cancer to camp.  This fully-supported, premiere cycling event features a century ride (160km) that starts in Vaughan and rolls through the countryside north of Toronto.  There are also 100km and 25km distances. The annual event began in 2002 as a tribute to Karen Tobias who passed away from breast cancer.  To date, Ride for Karen has raised nearly 1 million dollars.  Sponsored by Scotiabank, all proceeds from this year’s event go to Camp Trillium, Camp Oochigeas and Camp Quality.  For more information, to donate, or to register to ride, please visit www.rideforkaren.com
