Team Hope is getting all geared up for another amazing ride in 2012! You can check out our team (and make a donation) on our official 2012 Enbridge Ride to Conquer Cancer team page.
We ride for 2 days from Vancouver to Seattle. Some of our riders will do the regular route of 240 kms and other team members will take on the new challenge route of 160 kms per day for a total of 320 kms. Since every rider is required to raise $2500 each, we are hosting a fundraising event: our Third Annual Tip a Wee Dram for Cancer Research.
Please join us for our festival style whisky tasting on Thursday, March 15, 2012 at the Croatian Cultural Centre (approximately six blocks south of the Broadway and Commerical Skytrain station). The event will take place 6:45 to 9:45 pm. There is ample free parking, and remember to ensure you have a safe ride home.
This year Tip a Wee Dram, sponsored by Edgemont Fine Wines, Spirits, and Ales, will focus on Whiskys of the World. Taste whiskys from Scotland, Ireland, Canada, and Japan, to name a few. Learn about the different whiskys and enjoy some yummy bites to accompany your tastings. Again this year there will be numerous silent and live auction items. The live auction will also feature the heels of all the whiskys.
Last year sold out; so buy your tickets now and don't be disappointed! Still a great value - the tickets are $50 per person. Keep an eye on this site to see some of the key whiskys presented at the events as well as some of the auction items.
