Members of the Canadian Oilfield Riders (COR) group are heading out on their motorbikes on their annual charity ride.
Some kindhearted Calgarians are hitting the road to help kids this weekend. As Gil Tucker shows us, they know first-hand what a difference that support can make for the little ones in our lives.“It’s a cross-section of everything from guys who work in the field on rigs to engineers who work in the towers downtown and everything in between,” COR’s Bill Karran said.Proceeds from this year’s ride are going to the Alberta Children’s Hospital Foundation .
“This is truly inspiring,” ACHF’s Sean Parlee said. “It’s amazing to see the dedication and the hard work, the efforts to fundraise, and we can’t be more thankful.”COR members say they’re glad to have the opportunity to support treatment for young patients at the Alberta Children’s Hospital. “Pretty much all of us have kids, have grandchildren and you see the need for help,” Karran said. “Any contribution that any of us can make – we could be helping one of our best friend’s kids.”Edmonton Oilers’ mental coach has been team’s ‘secret weapon’ in roller-coaster season‘Someone’s going to get hurt’: Police recordings offer new insight into wrong-way chase on Ontario’s Highway 401
