2013 Bike MS Breakfast – Raffle Winners!

The United by Design Bike MS team would like to sincerely thank everyone who came to support the United by Design Bike MS team this morning at our annual Breakfast Fundraiser hosted by Lawrence Group!  This was another successful year with a great turn out and we appreciate everyone’s generosity and support.  After the final tally, we raised $1,146 for our team!  The contributions we received can and will make an immediate difference for everyone who must face the unpredictable nature of multiple sclerosis.  Because of everyone's help, each mile our team rides in the Bike MS:  Express Scripts Gateway Getaway Ride 2013 this weekend becomes more powerful and brings us closer to a cure.

We could not have put on this breakfast without the outstanding support from the Lawrence Group volunteers and UBD team volunteers as well as all of the companies who donated items for our raffle – THANK YOU ALL!!!

Below is a list of the raffle prizes and winning tickets/people.  Please contact Tom Bahr (tom.bahr@thelawrencegroup.com) within one (1) week to claim your prize.  Any unclaimed prizes will be kept and re-drawn for.  The list of winning tickets will also be posted on our Facebook Page.
