Over 300 bikers participated in the first annual "Run with the Nuns" Motorcycle Ride and Bike Show on Saturday, November 3rd. The event raised over $20,000 for Sutton Children's Medical Center and featured riders from Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas and Arkansas. The event kicked off on a clear morning with a "blessing of the bikes" by Monsignor Earl Provenza. Participants then took off designated courses and returned to the Stoner Boat Launch on the Red River to enjoy lunch and live music from local band "The Convertibles." Sisters from CHRISTUS Schumpert Health System were on hand to judge the Bike Show and then bravely take a spin on some of the motorcycles. Plans are already in the works for "Run with the Nuns" 2008. Stay tuned for more information and photos from this year's event. To view photos from our "Run with the Nuns" Kick Off Event click here. |
