Our Hospice ride as we saw it last year is canceled this year 2020 because of Covid 19. I was glad about that, as I knew it was not the right thing to do. But how can we cancel “Hospice”, so many people count on the funds going to Hospice and so many in our community of Cowichan are waiting anxiously for our Hospice building to be completed. Last year I rode 200km in support of hospice. I joined as my dad was coming near the end of life, and he did not want to die in hospital, he stayed home till the last day. Knowing there was a hospice bed if needed, gives you a sense of peace. Hospice supports the family in so many ways. My dad was very happy I was riding last year and this year I will ride in his memory. July 18th and 19th, I am going to ride in my own way for Hospice. I will ride 200km around the Cowichan Valley, keeping to my own community. Please if you can support me in this ride, click the link below, tax receipts will be given. I totally understand if you can’t, so many are out of work, or helping support those affected by Covid. I will ride hard, and am trying to raise money and awareness about how important this facility is. Please if you care to support me, you can go online and follow the links: http://vh.convio.net/goto/MaryH click the DONATE BUTTON You can also email mhof126@gmail.com and we can come up with a different way to donate. I will ride with all my supporters in mind and together we can soon see a Hospice facility finished here in the Cowichan Valley. I was born and raised here in the Cowichan Valley and love giving back to the community which has been so good to me. Thank You, and keep well
