Toad Memorial Party for Bikers Down Society
Hey all you people that got out to the Party on the weekend in Halifax.  Considering the weather - we really had a good show of people and a really good time.  I was wondering if this is something we should do every year this time of year..... I would have to have some feedback to see if it would be doable.  The price of everything has gone up and its not cheap to put on these kinds of shows.. On top of everything we still managed to raise close to $7000 and its all going to charity..... $4000 into the pot for the Bikers Down Society  - which is a great start...and $3000 to the Jimmy Jam Society who did the bar - all 100 % of their proceeds will go to children.. Its all good, but alot of work and worry if there is not the people........



Think its something that everyone would want to participate in for next year?



Do let me know....... I know I had a great time... ~ J

thank you all , it was an exceptional good turn out for the rotten weather, it goes to show how
great the biker community is and how compassionate they all are about each other and helping others in need.i think this event should take place every year as the bikers down society is about us. once again thank you all so much.

I had a great time
why not have an awareness ride now like pictou is doing and raise some more money for the cause.Nothing fancy just a ride through the city so people and the city officials will see what were up against.All groups all riderss
any may a small donation to riders down.

We are trying to put something to promote motorcycle awareness together for May - stay tuned to the website. We'll get the information out as soon as we know for sure.

I think an annual winter dance and summer awareness ride are great ideas.. Count me in and let me know if I can do anything to help.

I think that there should definitly be a party in Toad's memory every year...just like he had for all his valued friends and customers. I would like to think that there are enough people interested in attending to still make it profitable. The last 2 years went well, and we had CRAPPY weather both years...imagine how crowded it would be if we had decent weather? I would hate to see this event cease to exist!!!
