Thank you, Windy Hall and Mark Hall— The Villages Cycles for having Michelle Reardon create this beautiful video (Why We Ride For Jim Video) for the Pastor Jim Keegan Memorial Ride.

Here’s an update regarding the proceeds from the ride. We donated over 75% of the proceeds. Here’s a breakdown.

​

$700 to The Village Cycle (designated fund) for bicycle repairs and maintenance for those who may need financial assistance.

$1000 Leesburg Food Bank -$500 children’s backpack program (food each weekend) $500 general fund

$1000 Withlacoochee State Trail

$1000 New Life Church

$5000 that was matched twice creating a

$3000 seed money for next year’s event

​

Combined, this is a $33,700 impact from Jim’s Ride! Thank you to everyone who participated. Keep an eye open for next year’s date. My prayer at the very beginning of the project was that God would do more than we could ever ask or imagine. And He did, and He’s not done yet. Help us make an even bigger impact in 2025!
