At that time\, the organizers provided lunch\, and area businesses donated cash and merchandise for drawings. As participation grew\, a group of local bikers formed a committee in the 4th year and moved the ride to Glenwood City Park\, where it officially became Riding for a Cause. For those who wanted to feel the wind in their hair as they cruised along the ride route – on four wheels instead of 2 or 3 – cars were added to the lineup in 2015\, and the annual ride became Riding for a Cause Motorcycle Ride and Car Run. \nWe have the same goals today as the original organizers. The annual event is a fundraiser for Glacial Ridge Hospice. The ride and activities have always been a community event with free-will donations so everyone can participate. For safety and fun for all\, alcoholic beverages are not allowed. \nWhat is hospice?\nGlacial Ridge Hospice provides compassionate care for individuals facing life-limiting illnesses\, focusing on comfort\, dignity\, and quality of life. Their dedicated team of physicians\, nurses\, aides\, social workers\, spiritual caregivers\, counselors\, therapists\, and volunteers provide personalized physical and emotional support for both patients and their families. \nAt Glacial Ridge Hospice\, we cover a 30-mile radius from our office and have an RN on call\, 24 hours a day\, 7 days a week. \nFor more information\, contact us at 320.634.2221.

The first ride took place in Villard near American Iron and gradually moved to the Villard Fire Hall as the event grew. At that time\, the organizers provided lunch\, and area businesses donated cash and merchandise for drawings. Since its beginning\, many more volunteers and contributors became involved. A group of local bikers formed a committee of approximately 10 members after the 4th year and moved the ride to Glenwood City Park to accommodate the growing number of riders and the ride became Riding for a Cause. \nFor those who wanted to feel the wind in their hair as they cruised along the ride route – on four wheels instead of 2 or 3 – cars were added to the lineup in 2015\, and the annual ride became Riding for a Cause Motorcycle Ride and Car Run. All cars are welcome – daily drivers to hot rods. The cars follow the motorcycles for optimal safety. \nWe have the same goals today as the original organizers. The annual event is a fundraiser for Glacial Ridge Hospice. The ride and activities have always been a community event with free-will donations so everyone can participate. For safety and fun for all\, alcoholic beverages are not allowed. \nWhat is hospice?\nFor patients whose illness is no longer responding to aggressive curative therapies\, hospice addresses all the symptoms of the disease with special emphasis on controlling the patient’s pain and discomfort. The goal of hospice is to improve the quality of the patient’s last days and weeks of life by offering comfort and dignity. The hospice team also helps people manage the emotional\, social\, and spiritual impact of the disease on the patient and those close to them. \nThe patient’s care team is comprised of physicians\, nurses\, aides\, social workers\, spiritual caregivers\, counselors\, therapists\, and volunteers – all of whom are specially trained to provide pain and symptom management for the patient and support for the family. Because each individual and family have unique needs\, a hospice team works with the patient and their family to develop a personalized care plan. \nAt Glacial Ridge Hospice\, we cover a 30-mile radius from our office and have an RN on call\, 24 hours a day\, 7 days a week. \nFor more information\, contact us at 320.634.2221.

The first ride took place in Villard near American Iron and gradually moved to the Villard Fire Hall as the event grew. At that time\, the organizers provided lunch\, and area businesses donated cash and merchandise for drawings. Since its beginning\, many more volunteers and contributors became involved. A group of local bikers formed a committee of approximately 10 members after the 4th year and moved the ride to Glenwood City Park to accommodate the growing number of riders and the ride became Riding for a Cause. \nFor those who wanted to feel the wind in their hair as they cruised along the ride route – on four wheels instead of 2 or 3 – cars were added to the lineup in 2015\, and the annual ride became Riding for a Cause Motorcycle Ride and Car Run. All cars are welcome – daily drivers to hot rods. The cars follow the motorcycles for optimal safety. \nWe have the same goals today as the original organizers. The annual event is a fundraiser for Glacial Ridge Hospice. The ride and activities have always been a community event with free-will donations so everyone can participate. For safety and fun for all\, alcoholic beverages are not allowed. \nWhat is hospice?\nFor patients whose illness is no longer responding to aggressive curative therapies\, hospice addresses all the symptoms of the disease with special emphasis on controlling the patient’s pain and discomfort. The goal of hospice is to improve the quality of the patient’s last days and weeks of life by offering comfort and dignity. The hospice team also helps people manage the emotional\, social\, and spiritual impact of the disease on the patient and those close to them. \nThe patient’s care team is comprised of physicians\, nurses\, aides\, social workers\, spiritual caregivers\, counselors\, therapists\, and volunteers – all of whom are specially trained to provide pain and symptom management for the patient and support for the family. Because each individual and family have unique needs\, a hospice team works with the patient and their family to develop a personalized care plan. \nAt Glacial Ridge Hospice\, we cover a 30-mile radius from our office and have an RN on call\, 24 hours a day\, 7 days a week. \nFor more information\, contact us at 320.634.2221.
