[1ofTheBoys]

I have more, Thunderbird Motorcycles (9709 W 44th Ave, Wheat Ridge, CO 80033) and 12 Volt Tavern (7514 Grandview Ave, Arvada, CO 80002). Will get you contact info this evening. Will let you know about Coyote and CoPow in a little while.

[rforsythe]

Rock on!

The press release I'm typing up has quite a list going now. Once I hear from you on the last few I will add them in and send it out.

[caddygsxr]

once the list is final i can finish, what do you think so far

[Devaclis]

At the bottom "NON-glass containers ARE preferred"

[64BonnieLass]

All donations ...

Donations will be accepted until...spell check that one too.

Awesome job Caddy. That looks pretty nice I think. You da man!

[rforsythe]

Food drive - Drive capitalized
Donations can be dropped off (two 'p's in dropped), also insert 'these' between at and locations.

"All donation will be" should be donations plural

"Accedted until" should be accepted, until is one 'l'.

Can you make the R2SL and CSC logos the same size at the top?

Web address for faymyers - fix first letter.
Add rest of addresses if you can find them.

Thanks!

I have some good friends at Colorado powersports in Northglenn and would be willing to talk those folks to help. Let me know and I may be able to get the Boulder location to kick in as well. I'll call when you give the word and we can all make this happen for those that are'nt as fortunate.

Sounds good Greg, let's see what Sheila comes back with since she was calling CoPow already. Stay tuned...

[wazemoto07]

I called Copow and Kurt is going to call me back on if we can use them for both locations as a Donation spot. Will let you all know tomorrow if they are willing to do this, so we are on a roll........

CoPow NorthGlenn is in waiting on a return call from CoPow bloulder. I will let you know about Coyote soon.

[longrider]

The full name of Fay Myers is Fay Myers Motorcycle World

Thanks

[1ofTheBoys]

Coyote is in still haven't heard from boulder CoPow.

[rforsythe]

Great, thanks for the update!

The PR will go for final edit and dispersal after lunch tomorrow. Any shops should be finalized by then. For now I am putting CoPow Boulder in it just so I have less typing later.

I will give Performance a ring in the morning and update on that one. For now they're in the PR too; they've helped out R2SL so I can't imagine them saying no. With them and CP Boulder in, we have 13 collection sites across the metro area!

Gonna be a busy day on the 23rd picking all of this up.

CoPow Boulder is in. I am sending Trisha the info so they can post this on their website.

Do we know who is printing posters or should we have them printed ourselves and put them up in the locations we have gotten on board?

[rforsythe]

Probably just print ourselves and distribute accordingly.

[Devaclis]

I have not received 1 can or even a really offer. CSC - SC fails

[rforsythe]

step up people! Dana needs your frank and beans!

[Devaclis]

Performance is in as well. The PR is getting final editing now and will hit motorcycle news media within a couple hours. Local media will start getting it today as well.

[1ofTheBoys]

Great job everyone, now let's start collecting food. Do we have an updated flyer so I can print some out?

[rforsythe]

Hopefully the updated flyer turns up on here shortly.

This is the press release that just went out:

RACING 2 SAVE LIVES AND COLORADO SPORTBIKE CLUB TEAM UP FOR FOOD DRIVE

Inspired by recent local media reports of critical food shortages, motorcycle charity organization Racing 2 Save Lives and the Colorado Sportbike Club are teaming up this winter to help fight hunger in Denver and surrounding areas.

Thanks to several motorcycle dealerships and businesses, anyone can donate non-perishable food items through December 22nd. R2SL has donated the use of their event trailer to pick up the food from each location on December 23rd and deliver it to Food Bank of the Rockies, where it will be distributed to hundreds of families and people in need.

R2SL President Ralph Forsythe commented, "People everywhere are hurting for basic needs right now, and the economic downturn is just amplifying those needs. Many of us are more fortunate, so we want to give something back to our community and help out wherever we can. To see so many people rally around this cause is truly spectacular!"

Donations of boxed or canned items (no glass please) may be taken to these locations:

Fay Myers Motorcycle World – 9700 E. Arapahoe Rd., Greenwood Village
Grand Prix Motorsports – 3105 W. County Line Rd., Littleton
G-Force Powersports – 7700 W. Colfax Ave., Lakewood

Grand Prix Motorsports is offering discount coupons to anyone bringing in food items for this drive, and Fay Myers Motorcycle World will have Santa Claus at their store on December 20th for the kids. R2SL's trailer will be at Fay Myers along with Santa to help collect donations. ATS Diesel is also offering 15 percent off purchases to food donors, and Creative Looks Salon is giving 10 percent off select services.

In addition, CSC members and R2SL volunteers have planned several "bike nights" at regional locations to centralize donations, which will be collected and delivered with the rest of the food given at the businesses mentioned above.

R2SL organizers are currently planning events for 2009. For more information on participating or volunteering, visit R2SL's web site at www.racing2savelives.org or call 303-767-RACE.

Racing 2 Save Lives is a 501(c)3 charity that operates unique track-day events for motorcyclists, with proceeds donated to deserving children's charities in the communities where R2SL takes place. Since its founding in 2004, R2SL has donated $246,000 to charity.
