10th ANNUAL MIRACLE RIDE TO BENEFIT
CONNECTICUT CHILDREN’S MEDICAL CENTER TAKES PLACE APRIL 24
HARTFORD, Conn.— The streets of Hartford will reverberate again this spring with the 10th annual
Miracle Ride that takes place Sunday, April 24, at
Hartford’s Bushnell Park.
All types of motorcycles are welcome and the event takes place rain or shine. Riders can meet at Bushnell Park or at 12 starting satellite locations before converging to Hartford. At approximately 11:30 am, the 1,000 plus motorcyclists will leave the park and travel past Connecticut Children’s Medical Center where they will wave to the dozens of children and families who benefit from their generosity. Proceeds from this year’s event will help purchase three isolettes for the
Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
The procession continues to PNA Park on
North Plains Industrial Road in Wallingford for a day of food, music and raffles. For the past 10 years, the Miracle Ride has raised more than $200,000 to help purchase special medical equipment and support vital programs at Connecticut Children’s.
All riders who pre-register for the Miracle Ride will be entered into a drawing for a color television. For more information or to register on-line, please visit
www.miracleride.com or call the Miracle Ride Hotline,
(860) 346-1200.
