Well here goes year #2 for the Christmas Ride and night of giving.
Last year was a great event and turned out very well considering the weather we had. With the help of multiple businesses and personal sponsors. Christmas was given to 19 families in need,47 children. Our hope this year is to improve on those numbers.
We had several Assisted Living / Rehabilitation facilities reach out to us requesting we please add them to the route again this year as they are still talking about last years ride. We had a great response from the community as well on seeing all the lighted buggies in town. So let’s do it again ��.
Admission this year is bring some canned foods for the Meridian Food Bank. This Food drive is a collective effort with Meridian Speedway and Southwest Idaho UTV Adventure Rides to benefit the Meridian Food Bank during this time of need.
We will have 4 judged categories each of which is sponsored by local businesses. These categories are as follows. These are limited to 25 contestants in each of these 4 classes.
Best Decorated
Best Lit
Best Themed
Ugly Buggy
We will also being doing a Kids Choice Category which is open to all in attendance and are judged by the children only.
There will be a kids craft tent hosted by Kristine Lee of “ Idaho Gem Group Real Estate” and Lexus Holm of “ 208 OffRoad Performance”
Santa Clause is making a return visit this year to share in the event and he is bringing his friend The Grinch . We will be doing pictures again .
We are going to look into a food truck or 2 , a coffee truck, maybe even a bakery truck for your enjoyment as well.
This year should be a lot of fun we have tried to add things to the day to make it fun all day. Come out and share some cheer with the community and your fellow off-roaders.
