L to R: Rob Coe, Dale Martin, Dean Steinwandt and Dennis Nadon offer the ladyballs pose. It is a nationally recognized symbol of the grit and determination of females battling ovarian cancer. This cruel illness takes the lives of five women daily across Canada.

The sights and sounds of dozens of motorcycles riding in single file through the streets of Camrose and venturing out in the rural area of the city on July 9 will have extra special meaning. It is the second annual Camrose Motorcycle Ride for Mum in support of Ovarian Cancer Canada. Local organizer Dale Martin lost his mother to cancer which led to this unique local fundraiser. This ride signifies individual pain of loss and local riders’ combined attempt to raise a sizeable donation for ovarian cancer research. Last year, 48 riders joined forces in raising almost $7,000. This year, it is hoped that additional riders will show their support and help meet the lofty goal of a $10,000 donation. The fundraising ride will see registration taking place at Camrose Motorsports (the host business) beginning at 9:00 a.m. There will be a $20 fee per bike. Kickstands go up at 10:00 a.m. A barbecue will follow the scenic and purposeful ride.
