  • The USCENTCOM Statue is In

    The statue model of the US Central Command Memorial statue arrived today, and it is truly inspiring. Though lacking some of the details of the finished memorial, this collector's item will be cherished by the individual or group that purchases it at our auction. Scultpor Scott Stearman used this model to demonstrate the work he planned for the the statue he was commissioned to create for the US Central Command Memorial. The Memorial is now finished, and Scott generously donated this item for our auction.

    It is signed by the sculptor (the photograph really does not do this justice), and has a plaque attached reading:

    CENTCOM MEMORIAL
    "To honor the men and women of the United States who served the cause of peace and freedom in the central region."
    UNITED STATES CENTRAL COMMAND 

     
  • On-Site Ticket Sales

    We've had some requests for information about "at the door" ticket sales. Here's the scoop:

    First, we will not be able to sell tickets at the door of the theatre. As a very last resort, if you cannot get a ticket any other way, we will make one available to you at the door. More on that in a minute.

  • Come Ring the Bell

    The Belladier is Coming

    And I understand he's bringing the Bell

    I just received an email from Claire Hall, David Halls daughter in law. David is responding well to treatment, and is back in the United States. And the great news is that he's coming to the event. See an excerpt for Claire's email:


    We are deeply honored that the Northside Ride has selected our Belladier as the beneficiary of their 2011 fundraiser.
     
    David will be attending at least a portion of the event, though we can’t confirm exactly which portion. (You’ll just have to come to the whole thing to see him!)
     
    Please come join us this Saturday, and tell your friends!
     
     
    See you there,
     
    Claire Hall


    I have also since heard that the plan is to bring the Liberty Bell to Northside Naz for this event. Exciting news about David, and about the event!

    Updated Information: The Liberty Bell is definitely going to be there. We will also have a surprise guest speaker at the Liberty Luncheon. You will not want to miss this!

     
  • 2011 Ride Route Posted

    We've updated the The Ride page to include the planned route to the theatre. Please note two important things:

    • The ride will have LEO escort - please ride carfully and follow the instructions given at the required safety meeting
    • The route is subject to change at the request of LEO or if other circumstances dictate 
     
  • BBQ Count

    We're buying the food and getting ready to slow smoke the brisket, but we need to know how many to count on so no one goes hungry. Please click on the 2011 Events menu, and answer the quick poll (on the right) to let us know how many will be in your group.

About the Northside Ride

The Northside Ride is an outreach program sponsored by the Forth Worth Northside Church of the Nazarene as a fundraiser for selected causes. Though targeted for motorcyclists, the event is open to anyone. We encourage cagers (those stuck in four wheel vehicles) to join in the run with the bikers.

Mark your calendars, this years event will be on Saturday, April 30th. We'll start with an auction fundraiser followed by a ride to the screening of the documentary Patriot Guard Riders. Our plans are to make this an annual event, with future events being an all day rally, meal, and ride; with live music, vendors, and auctions.

The fundraiser auction will raise money to help defray medical expenses for David Hall, the Belladier for the Liberty Bell. Following the auction, we will have an organized bike/vehicle run to the screening of the Patriot Guard Riders documentary by Ellen Frick. After the movie screening, Ellen will be on stage to answer questions about the movie, as well as a representative from the North Texas Patriot Guard Riders to field questions about the PGR.

We're still working out details on where the movie will be shown, as well as the time, but keep morning and early afternoon open on Saturday, April 30th, and keep checking back for additional details.

Registration includes:

  • Participation in the bike/vehicle run
  • Admission to the screening of the Patriot Guard Movie documentary
  • Reserved special seating at the theater
  • Soldier Down, Kickstands Up ride patch* (for each participant)
     
  • The personal satisfaction of helping two worthy causes

Registration Fees:
