J.R. Taylor 5th Annual Memorial Bike Run
Calendar: Local Calendar
Quercus  
14 Sep 2008
The 5th Annual J. R. Taylor Memorial Bike Run & Tailgate Party will be held on Sunday September 14, 2008. All proceeds will benefit the "J. R. Taylor Memorial Bridge" to be constructed on the Bethel Park Branch of the Montour Trail at the Clifton/McMurray Road crossing. Pre-registration is just $35.00 per bike and $5 for a rider; $40 per bike the day of the event. (Includes t-shirt) You can download a registration form at www.jrtaylormemorial.com
Bike Run registration will begin at 8:30 a.m. at Al's Café in Bethel Park with a continental breakfast for all pre-registered bikers and riders. The bikes will leave at 10:00 a.m. and enjoy an 80-mile scenic escorted ride through Washington County (with one stop along the route) and conclude with a family "tailgate" style party (music, food, beer, pop, lots of door prizes, raffles) in the parking lot of Al’s. Even if you don’t ride, you are invited to join the festivities beginning at noon; there will be a little something for everyone! All guests for the tailgate party only are $20; children under 12 are free. Pre-registered guests will also receive an event t-shirt
To date, this event has raised over $200,000 which has paid for all of the pre-construction services. This includes, engineering and design services, drilling for environmental compliance and physical relocation of all utility lines. Because of the attention given to this project, the "Home Town Streets and Safe Routes to School", a program of the Federal Highway Administration has awarded $750,000.00, through Penn DOT District 11, that will pay for the material and construction contracts for the bridge. Century Steel Erectors, along with the Ironworkers Local #3 and Operating Engineers Local #66 and other local businesses and contractors will donate much of the equipment and services to erect the bridge.
In July, PennDot received the complete set of design package drawings and data for the bridge and the Council expects to begin bridge work before the end of this construction season.
For more information or to donate a prize for the famous Chinese Auction, please call, Debi, Darlaine or Diann Taylor at Century Steel Erectors, 412.469.8800.
