Supporting Our Veterans is the Goal of this Clearwater Event

In case you haven’t noticed, there are a ton of motorcycles on the roads these days. The weather is perfect for it, and many of the roads in Central Minnesota are perfect to take a ride on.

If you are one who likes to climb aboard and take off for a ride, here’s a chance to ride with a big group of folks and raise money for our veterans. 

The Clearwater American Legion Post 323 will be hosting their Homeless Vet’s Run next Saturday, August 3rd. This ride will start and end at the Clearwater Legion Post, 505 Pine Street in Clearwater.  

Registration begins at 9am, and kickstands will go up at 10:30 am. This ride will be around 130 miles and go through Cold Spring, Melrose, and Paynesville.  

Once the ride is over, there will be a pork chop dinner starting at 4. It’s $12 for one chop and $15 for two. In addition to the dinner, there’s a silent auction until 5:30, a live auction starting at 6:30, and the gun and cash raffle will start at 7pm. 

The cost for riders is $30 and $15 for passengers and includes tickets to the pork chop dinner and the dance afterward are included.  Oh, did I forget to mention the dance. The band “Pull String Diesel” will be playing. If you just want to come to the street dance, admission will be $5 per person.  

All the proceeds benefit Veterans Causes in our area.
