Mountain Home, AR. – The Moose Riders of Mountain Home Moose Lodge #1953 will host their annual “Blessing of the Bikes” on Saturday, May 20. Now in its ninth year, the local event closely coincides with a similar event held at Mooseheart, the organization’s “child city” located near Aurora, Illinois 40 miles west of Chicago.
The event, to be held at the Moose Lodge located on Hwy 5 approximately 2 miles south of the bypass, will include a motorcycle poker run, and silent auction, as well as games beginning at 2:00 p.m. Activities start at 8:30 a.m. with doughnuts and coffee at the Lodge, with the run starting at 10:00, rain or shine. A fundraising lunch will also be available after the run which ends at the Lodge.
All proceeds from this fundraising event will benefit local charities with the first $2023 raised going to the children at Mooseheart. This family-friendly event is open to the public with all encouraged to attend. Anyone wishing more information may call the Lodge at 2:00 p.m. daily at 870-491-5696.
