Press release

Save the date! The 12th annual Brenda’s Ride with Friends: Fighting Cancer One Mile at a Time will be held on Saturday, August 2, at the Weirs Beach Lobster Pound. For the third year in a row, Winner’s Circle Auto Sales in Tilton has signed on as a $1,000 Gold Sponsor of the event.

The ride will start at 10 AM sharp from the Weirs Beach Lobster Pound, as hundreds of motorcycles depart together for a beautiful ride to Waterville Valley. The convoy will arrive back at the Lobster Pound by early afternoon for a cook-out, raffles, and live music. Proceeds from this great event will be kept local, benefiting the Oncology Department and patients at LRGH.

The cost to ride is $25 pre-registered, or $30 the day of the event, and includes food and entertainment. All are welcome – if you do not plan to ride but want to stop by for delicious food and great entertainment, a small donation is encouraged.

Winner’s Circle owner JJ Santoro encourages all community members to support local patients undergoing a cancer diagnosis by riding alongside 16-year breast cancer survivor Brenda Ganong. “Brenda has been an inspiration to so many over the years, and Winner’s Circle is honored to support her event. It’s a fun day for an important cause. I encourage everyone get out there and show your support on August 2,” states Santoro, who is a cancer survivor himself.

Winner’s Circle is joined by Silver Sponsors Brady Companies, Electrical Concepts, Fire & Iron Station 138 Laconia, “Nick,” and Roche Realty Group. Dozens of other businesses and individuals support Brenda’s Ride through food and auction donations, shirt sponsorship, or by volunteering at the event.
