Ice Cream Social and Backpack Run

The Blue Knights will be hosting an ice cream social and backpack run for the children of Ebenezer’s! Below is information from their Facebook event:

Ice Cream Social & Backpack run. Meet at Smith Crossroads in Lenoir (Chick-fil-A shopping center) at 12:00. Ride to CrossRoads Harley-Davidson in Wilkesboro to meet up with some more folks. Then ride to Ebenezer Children's Home for an ice cream social and to pass out backpacks.

Ebenezer houses a variety of ages so we don't want to give teenagers crayons and coloring books or give kindergarteners hi-liters, so we are hoping that we can put together age-appropriate backpacks full of school supplies. A list will be available.

Ebenezer is a great ministry that the Blue Knights, Red Knights, and Guardians of Children support at Christmas time and because we enjoy their fellowship so much, and did not want to limit seeing them only at Christmas time, we continued our partnership to create an ice cream social. Initially, we only charged an ice cream topping as the ride fee, but we ended up with so many ice cream toppings. What we are doing this year is just asking for age-appropriate school supplies.

Thank you for your continued support!
