LAST MEETING (June 18th)

 

Mike Sieren, Intern with the Registers Annual Great Bike Ride Across Iowa (RAGBRAI) Cedar Falls planning committee, provided the membership with some interesting information regarding RAGBRAI that will take place on Wednesday July 25th. This will be the third time that Cedar Falls has hosted a RAGBRAI. The previous two occurred in 1993 and 1998. This years event promises to be the biggest that has ever taken place due to the fact that Lance Armstrong has promised to ride the entire route from western to eastern Iowa. In addition, the Armstrong foundation has coordinated “Blues Traveler” a nationally acclaimed band, to play at the UNI Dome Wednesday evening. Proceeds from the concert will benefit the Armstrong foundation in their fight against cancer with a portion staying in the Cedar Valley for cancer-related charities. Mike indicated that there are many ways to become involved as a volunteer for this years event. There are numerous committees that would be happy to take on more people and there is a need for individuals to provide housing for RAGBRAI participants. If you are interested in getting involved, you can contact the Cedar Falls Visitors & Tourism Bureau at 268-4266 or check out the RAGBRAI web site at http://www.cedarfallsragbrai.org/

I think someone was worried that turnout was not very heavy. They spoke to soon!
