From Don:
 
I'd like to thank all of those that stepped up and were part of the 
"2020 BCRF" planning committee and also to those that volunteered! We made a plan, followed through and made it happen! Please feel proud of what we've accomplished. No final numbers yet, to which I apologize for the lengthy time frame on this, but 9/19/2020 was a day that we raised $21,348.49!!
 
If you plan to purchase a "CRR" t-shirt, pick your size and color from the inventory chart below, email me the info. (donbred1@gmail.com) and I'll bring them the next time that we meet up.                          
                                                                                                              For those of you that are Eagle Members and do the (dice) shake of the day, this months, September charity is "BCRF"!!
 
"CRR" Rides will continue as usual, so show up in the parking lot of Jimmy Jacks and we will go some place. Ride dates below!
​
10/10/2020 & 10/25/2020
FUTURE RIDE!
November 22nd Ride
Second Annual Burned Turkey Relay Poker Ride
$20 per person to play. 
Proceeds will go to the BCRF. 
There will be a $50 Fred Meyer gift card up for grabs. We will use your mileage for the playing cards and I will lead the first leg of the ride. Low hand will then lead us to the next stop and so on until the 5th leader will take us to lunch. This is a rain or shine event. If it is nasty that day, bring your cage and the ride will still happen. This is also a chance for us to get together with our CRR Family before Thanksgiving and share some family-hood. Should be an interesting ride as last year was the first. The more that come, the better the ride as it can get a little twisted. Mark the date!!

I'd like to once again, thank Rick Ellersick for all of his help and support throughout the years, it was truly AWESOME to have this man finally at our event! Thanks Rick!
Re-Purpose Your Focus from Doc:
You get another chance to read the RPYF, an awesome article provided by the one and only "Doc"!! 
 
A few weeks ago I encouraged you to donate or buy the ticket even if you couldn't make it to the 7th Annual BCRF Event. For one reason or another, there were a number of people that did just that! While I was at work on Sunday, I saw some of those folks as they asked me how it went. Alla and I were some of those unable to attend, so in speaking with those folks, they relayed to me that they bought the tickets because of my encouragement. To be quite honest, I was taken back because I sometimes wonder if my Focus section is being read. So now having that confirmation and knowing that you are reading, Thank You All!!
 
Every dollar counts! We chose to put our efforts behind the BCRF and our efforts over the years have done a lot to help the kids and their families as they learn through the guidance of Michael, Kathleen and the others connected to this organization that it's OK.  Every dollar counts. I found myself talking with a fellow employee the other day about the Fire Truck, John Greenhaw, All City Fence and the owner. As I was explaining how our group has raised around a quarter million dollars over the last 6 years and the recent efforts of John and his company, I found myself getting choked up. That is the power of what we do as Cascade Renegade Riders and those we associate with. When least expected, someone we know makes a gesture that can bring us to tears. Not tears of sadness, but tears of joy that can bring even me to wipe a tear or 2 of pride from eyes because of your efforts.  
 
This has been an extremely unusual year. Once again, I repeat myself some in that events we planned were cancelled, some were moved and others yet to come. Every dollar counts and we will continue our efforts for this noble cause. Thank you to each and every one of you for what you do and thank you for being part of The Cascade Renegade Riders. It is my pleasure to call you Sister, Brother and Family! We will see you in October.
