Members of Local 1297 in Ashland, OH, held their 19th annual “Ride for the Guide” to benefit Guide Dogs of America (GDA). Nearly 550 riders, members and friends participated in the 100-mile poker run.
The event raised more than $10,000, which will provide guide dogs and instruction in their use – free of charge – to blind and visually-impaired men and women in the United States and Canada.
Volunteers from Local 1297, led by President Fred Confer, prepared more than 500 pounds of BBQ to serve at the rally. The event also included contests, drawings and live music
