A bike ride to support the Leila and Cyrus Poppen Hospice Residence

Looking for a leisurely bike ride and great cause?

Join members of the Fruitport Lions Club and Fruitport Chiropractic Center for their annual 15-mile Ride to Remember around Spring Lake to support the Poppen Hospice Residence on May 25.

The ride is held in conjunction with Fruitport’s Old Fashioned Days, beginning at 11:00 a.m. from Fruitport Edgewood Elementary, 3255 Pontaluna Road. Check-in is at 10:30 a.m.

“My family and I know how important hospice care is because we experienced it with my mom,” says Jim Kauppila, member of the Fruitport Lions Club and chair of the Ride to Remember. “Many of our riders come back year after year, and we’re all grateful to be able to support the Poppen Hospice Residence with this fun event.”

Early online registration is $15 for adults and $5 for children under the age of 16.  Please visit HarborHospiceMI.org/ways-to-give/Ride2Remember.  Registration is open on the day of the event.  Pre-order t-shirts available online or by using forms available at Harbor Hospice, Fruitport Lions Club, Fruitport Chiropractic Center and X-Cell Regenerative Health.

All riders are encouraged to wear safety helmets. Lunch is included for each rider at the conclusion of the event, courtesy of the Fruitport Lions Club Ox Roast.

The Leila & Cyrus Poppen Hospice Residence is part of Harbor Hospice and located in Fruitport Township on nine acres of woods and walking paths. Its 14 private patient rooms have served as a welcoming home with compassionate and skilled care for almost 3,000 terminally ill patients since it opened in 2005.
