RFAR Barbie

Loads of fun and reminds me of my beauty at home.

Kick-Off BBQ

The support gang came together on Sunday and we had a great feed. Way too much food.

My Co-pilot Don from Lousiana arrive on time on the "no where island". One short ferry ride and great to see him again after about 2 years. One of the good guys and a Doctor to boot.

I was presented with a mascot to protect me and make sure I have loads of fun on the ride.

Check the photo out.. RFAR BARBIE.

We depart on the Alaska Ferry Taku at dark and get to Prince Rupert in the morning.

RFAR Farkles!

One Week to Departure!

The adventure is about to begin... all the planning is mostly in place. Next week at this time I will be arriving in Prince Rupert, B.C. Canada. I have a potential of up to +50 Rotary Clubs to visit in the Canadian Province.

I just completed an interview on KRBD-FM Pubic Radio Ketchikan and shared with Ketchikan live my RFAR Project. So far the Rotary Clubs have donated in support of the project $1750.

It is all beginning to be real. Rfardahl.

My Mission... the Goal.

here is a statement of my project goal.

Rotary Foundation Awareness Ride (RFAR)

Spring 2012
Goals:

Rotary Awareness:

1. Rotary Foundation Education Program Presentations
2. Foundation FundRaising
3. Club Fellowship

Mission:

Rotary Fellowship, Foundation Education,

Raising Rotary Awareness in the membership.

Ride a motorcycle from Ketchikan, Alaska,
to Canada and the U.S. to visit Rotary Clubs along the way.

The goal is to visit 100 Rotary Clubs.

Plan:

RFAR will raise funds for Foundation programs with 50% going to
RF Polio Plus and 50% going to the RF Annual Programs Fund.

All funds raised will go to the Foundation.

Clubs and Members making donations will receive Paul Harris Fellowship
recognition credit. Ketchikan Rotary Clubs and District 5010 will get Sponsor
recognition from Rotary International.

The Foundation wins.

I will have fun participating.
My hope is Rotarian riders will join on legs of the trip I am
goaled to get at least 100 full “Club” pledges at $1000 per pledge.

The Clubs then can use the Club points to award recognitions points
to sustaining members for “Service Above Self “ to the Club,
or Community.


END POLIO NOW!
