Bike-A-Thon 2013

Every year Tommy's school has a bike-a-thon and the money goes toward charity.  Normally the money goes to Riley Children's Hospital.  This year the school wanted the money to go toward a very special personal cause.  A little boy in the class ahead of Tommy's has leukemia so this year all the money went toward paying his hospital bills.  

So let the Bike-A-Thon BEGIN!
At the starting line and.... they're off!

I assume what followed was mass chaos... on bikes!

This is a picture of the guest of honor, Camryn.  I believe he's in between chemo treatments at this time.

Tommy's class needs a water break! It was hot and humid that day.

Tommy looks thrilled to be taking part in the bike-a-thon.

Time for a time-out from biking.  Just chillin' on the curb.

I believe when the final totals were in, the school raised $2500 for Camryn.  So glad it always goes toward such a good cause.
