Thank you 2023 Christmas in July Ride attendees, sponsors, and community supporters. You helped us raise nearly $17,000 on our 2023 ride! We had over 140 people attend the ride and received raving reviews. We safely lead over 100 vehicles through a 120 mile journey and returned to the North Branch American Legion for great music, food, and fun!
