The Ride for the Refuge is TOMORROW!
Online Registration has closed, but all are welcome to register tomorrow!
Rain Day Precaution
Rain Announcement
While we are all praying that the rain holds off until later in the day it looks like rain on Monday morning.
Note: The Ride for the Refuge is a rain or shine event. Your health and safety is of utmost concern for us.
- Please only ride if you are comfortable. The roads will likely be wet and it could be windy. If you are not comfortable riding in those conditions, feel free not to ride and enjoy the picnic, or ride the designated routes another day.
- While we will track severe storms and delay the start if there is lightning in the area, once you have departed Shades Beach, please exercise good judgment.
Again, if you choose not to ride tomorrow, please join us for food and fellowship at the Riders Picnic at 10 am and as always thank you for pedaling with a purpose! Together, we really are making homelessness rare, brief and one-time in NW Penn!
Take a Ride with us!

EUMA's The Refuge Homeless Shelter for families
When you donate to EUMA through this event -- you are helping children and their families move from homeless to home – from hopeless to hope in a brighter tomorrow – even during this pandemic.
Every child deserves a home… that’s why EUMA’s The Refuge exists… to end immediate homelessness – provide critical emergency shelter, basic necessities, faithful support, and a commitment to ending homelessness – not
merely addressing it.
Last year, 73 families were sheltered at EUMA’s The Refuge, including 156 children. With your help, 75% of the families that stayed at EUMA’s The Refuge last year moved into a permanent home of their own.
EUMA’s The Refuge operates primarily on your private donations - we depend on your support as we work to keep homeless families with children safe during this COVID-19 crisis.
