charity event

[wildoates]

This is a Surin/Buriram event

We are in the planning stages of putting together a charity ride on 10 Oct (Sunday). It will start in Surin, we will visit 2 establishments in Surin, ride to Prasat, visit 1 establishment, ride to Coffee Corner visit them, then ride to Buriram to coffee connection and 1 other establishment then finish off in Krasang.....where we hope to acquire some chrome pole attractions......end of ride..... you can come by any means you want, does not have to be a Motorcycle, and you don't have to go to all the places, i.e. Surin then meet up at Krasang, Buriram then meet up at Krasang, Just meet up at Krasang.... entry fee will be 200 baht which will go to Tree of Life orphanage, Each business will be enticing you with a door prize……

Again, still in planning stages, will set up times, routes, put up some flyers, trying to get as many as possible, hope to get some of the Thai riders as well. It will be a great event, fun for all, something no one will want to miss…..Keep tuned here……

any ideas or questions, contact myself, (smoke signals work best) or Rocky at coffee connection.....

Hi Bums

Well it did not take long for the Surin contingent  to think up another reason to visit the krasang gogo bar! 

If the tree of life orphanage gets a few baht out of it so well and good!

What you have is people paying a small fee  riding/driving to 3 business in Surin, 4 business in Buriram who are all providing to the event and money to the chairty, with the end being a bar that is providing entertainment for all those that come......

I am not asking for anything, I was just letting this board know that the Surin board, is supporting this event, and members, even though they are not attending the event are donating money to the event that will be given to a charity in Buriram..

I will go Mike (weather I have a bike going or not.)

I must commend you and Jason for organising this as a way of promoting local businesses and raising money for The Tree of Life Orphanage.

Thanks dave, we were looking at you to be the lead vehicle for the cars and trucks. Just in case some bike or bikers break down on the way    I just thought that since we were support 4 business in Buriram and the orpanage in Buriram that folks in Buriram would care...seems like folks from sisaket, Pattaya, which could find local entertainment without driving here, riding with us, and staying in local hotels have more to give to charity...

Hi wildoates, 

I won't be able to attend the charity event but well done for the thought, look like a well organized trip, hope you do well and drive safety.

I'm sure some from Buriram will want to join.

Post phone numbers of yours and Rocky to make it easier to contact each other also outside of the forum.

Keep post us with information and pictures later on.

I was in Starbeams restaurant yesterday and saw the original artwork by our very talented local Muso/artist extraordinaire (David Thrasher). Some of you guys may know him from playing the Mouth-organ and singing  at Time Out. He has prepared a cartoon style Elephant riding a Chopper bike for the front of the Charity Ride T -Shirt and a sort of map for the back of the T-shirt showing the venues visited. I think they will be very very popular especially as all proceeds are going to charity. Numbers will be limited.

We have recieved a serious lack of interest from most of our friend over in Buriram, so I suppose we will be visiting a couple of places in Buriram this Sunday and seeing no-one!
 What a great shame as its being televised by Pattaya One TV farang channel and we intend to make it an annual event. So many wasted Business opportunities IMHO!

I second that, it will be nice gesture to the thai community. It will put Surin and Buriram on the map and it is an opportunity, not only for local business but also to have a nice day out. So for once let your heart speak and help the childeren who really can use this support.

[Admin]

guys, I really don't understand what's the frustration all about....

you make charity event, so go around Surin and Buriram Farang/Thai businesses and ask for donation for the children.. Isn't it all about?.....

[Dave the Dude]

Just like to remind you guys that there will be a large group of Bikers (numbers not necessarily our individual size) arriving in Buriram tomorrow afternoon. We will be calling at Coffee Connection, Paddy's Bar and the Orphanage, to present them with presents. After leaving Buriram some will be visiting a GoGo in Krasang, to finish the day off. Pattaya One TV station will be filming the event
All are welcome and obviosly all donations will be grateful received.
