Fight for Ryder!


    This Saturday is the Fight for Ryder Benefit and it will be a long and exciting day for us at the Post. For those that don't know Ryder, he is brave young man that has Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG). DIPG an incurable form of Brain Cancer  It effects portions of the brain stem which makes it impossible to operate on.There is no cure for this type of brain tumor. We will have multiple events on Saturday to raise money to go to Ryder's Foundation.  Not only is this for a great cause but I love it anytime we get to invite the public and the community into our Post. 

Here is the schedule of events for the Ryder Benefit:

Community Yard Sale - 8am to 11am
