15th YICCBT Gives Funds to Charities

Young’s Ice Cream Charity Bike Ride Distributes Funds to Local Charities
$96,000 raised in a one & two-day bike ride in 2017
Through the work of local volunteers and bike riding enthusiasts, $96,000 was raised to benefit four local charities.
The four charities are The Alzheimer’s Association, the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, United Rehabilitation Services, and South Community Positive Health Options. The Young’s Ice Cream Charity Bike Tour has donated $1,156,000 over the past 15 years.
The Young’s Ice Cream Charity Bike Ride is organized by a group of local volunteers. The ride starts and ends at Young’s, with 28-mile, 56-mile, 83-mile, 100-mile and 166-mile (two-day) options. Two-day participants stay overnight in great accommodations at Ohio Northern University. Riders of all ages and abilities raise money for charity and have a good time riding the well-marked routes. Food and ice cream is provided to all volunteers and riders. Each charity provides volunteers to staff the rest stops along the route.
Planning for the 16th Annual Young’s Ice Cream Charity Bike Ride on July 14 & 15, 2018 is underway. A special thanks to all our volunteers, riders and sponsors in making this ride a great success.
