I want to thank all the individuals, groups and families. that took the time to participate in today's' mission, To bring the "Wall That Heals" to Cherry Hill.
It was cold. It was wet. We got it here.
It was an honor to view some of the memorabilia associated with the wall.
As the forecast was looking dim for this ride. I was hoping that 25 bikes would show. As I saw the various groups coming down Rt 295 to make the turnaround to the rest area, my spirits were lifted as we hit the 50 mark and to the best of my knowledge the final count was 70 bikes. I never did count the police carsor the cages. If anyone has a total please let me know.
The LEOS did a fantastic job of guiding us along RT 295. Medofrd, Willingboro thank you for sending your officers and vehicles to Camden County.
To the Cherry Hill Fire Department. Thank you for the coffee and other refreshments at the rest area. Forgive me for not getting the word to you in time to get the flag displayed along Chapel Ave.
To the American Legion Riders, Thank you for your support and resources to make this happen.
Sue Quinn-Morris, for what you did to get this event to actually happen Thank You.
THANK YOU to the Veterans of this country and to their families.
