The organizer, Pat Joynt, director of Saigon Scooter Center, said, the charity run was held every year to share love with unlucky children and build community spirit.
“Last time we had more than 200 people participating in the 40km ride and we raised over US$5,000 worth of gifts and toys for the orphans in HCMC’s Can Gio District,” Joynt said.
Advance-purchase tickets are VND300,000 and VND350,000 on the day. Interested riders should come to Sesame Training School at 53 Xo Viet Nghe Tinh Street at 8 a.m. on November 28 for registration. The ticket includes buffet breakfast and goodie bag including T-shirt, banner, sticker and lunch time free entry into Vuon Xoai Resort in Dong Nai and entertainment and lucky draws in the evening. Following the ride, a party will be organized for participants at Quan Xua Restaurant in Thanh Da Island where the lucky draw and other charity activities will take place.
