DDSS Students Get Ready to "Party For a Purpose" with Inside Ride

Originally Aired: December 20, 2019

 

  • Teams of 6 that are responsible for raising a minimum $300 per team ($50/participant) to participate
  • Teams can be from the school, community, or other schools that wish to participate
  • Minimum grade is Grade 7
  • 1 person on your team will ride for 10 minutes on a stationary bike while the others cheer you on

 

  • There is a DJ with music, tons of energy, and there will be prizes for:
    • Best Costume
    • Most spirited
    • Most Mileage
    • Most Fundraised

 

  • There is now an 83% survival rate in childhood cancer cases. To put that in perspective when Terry Fox started his fundraiser and run. There was only a 10% survival rate in childhood cancers.
  • There goal is to get that to 100%
  • Even though a child might survive cancer, there are still long term effects as well as a higher risk for it to return

 

Delhi has a fundraising goal of $10,000 you can register for a team or just simply donate at www.Delhidistrict.Theinsideride.com.

 

We are also looking for sponsors for the event.
