Huge success with Big Bike Ride

Congratulations to everyone who participated in the sixth Annual TB Fit Okotoks and Friends, Big Bike ride for the Heart and Stroke Foundation last Saturday.

Congratulations to everyone who participated in the sixth Annual TB Fit Okotoks and Friends, Big Bike ride for the Heart and Stroke Foundation last Saturday. I’m really impressed that we were able to raise over $12,000 for the Heart and Stroke Foundation this year! Tamara Boivin is the driving force behind this Big Bike event and her enthusiasm for helping the Heart and Stroke Foundation is contagious. I’ve participated in the Big Bike ride with Tamara a few times now and she really goes above and beyond to make the event fun for everyone. It was a cold morning when we first gathered at the Big Bikes - a mitts and toque required kind of morning. After the Zumba warm up and pedalling the Big Bike up a little hill I was so happy that it was a cold day because I was sweating like a sinner in church. Congratulations once again to everyone who participated in this Heart and Stroke Foundation fundraiser and a sincere thank you to Tamara Boivin for bringing us all together to support this cause. ****** True story. We were on a family road trip when I was a little kid and we had stopped somewhere for dinner. I can’t recall where we were exactly but I’m pretty sure we were down in the States. We had finished our dinners when the server stopped by the table to say that she was ending her shift but the other server would “dessert” us. Maybe we were a bit punchy at that point in the trip but it was hilarious when the other server never showed up. We were deserted.
