Help us thank Johnny Dare!

As you may know, we have the largest, most successful Bikers for Babies – nationwide - right here in Kansas City. You may also know that radio personality Johnny Dare of 98.9 The Rock has been instrumental in the success of this event for the past 14 years. (Since 1995, Bikers for Babies has raised $3.7 million in Kansas City!) His promotion of Bikers for Babies on-air and passion for the March of Dimes mission is to be commended! And I am asking for your help in thanking him…

We are putting together a “thank you” book for Johnny to present to him after the event. We want this book to be full of pictures and notes from local families who have been touched the March of Dimes. If are able to help, here is what I need:

*A letter to Johnny telling a little about your family/child(ren) and thanking him for his involvement in Bikers for Babies and support of the March of Dimes.
*A picture of your child(ren) holding a “sign” (poster, piece of paper, etc.) simply saying “Thank You.” Please just include the words “thank you” as we would also like to put together a slideshow with pictures of all of the adorable children to thank ALL riders! I am hoping to add to this slideshow year after year and have it be something we can show at various March of Dimes events.

These can be sent to kmcburney@marchofdimes.com. Since we will be putting this book together immediately after the ride, the deadline is September 20, 2009 – the same day as the 15th Annual Bikers for Babies at Kansas Speedway!

Thank you in advance for your help with this project – I know it will be something Johnny will appreciate and cherish for years to come. I have attached a sample from a local family team captain if you are interested in getting some ideas. If you have any other team members who has a child touched by the March of Dimes mission, please feel free to forward to anyone who may be interested!
