Jim Bendishaw Memorial Ride

The Jim Bendishaw Memorial Ride, held on June 14, raised $10,200. The organizers of the ride, pictured here with Make-A-Wish Manager of Special Events Stephanie Pugliese (third from left, bottom row), received a Wishmaker Award plaque. The 300 participating bikes were blessed at the Jumonville Cross. The bikes lined the streets of Uniontown, PA, prior to the event, which also featured a Chinese auction and dinner at the Hutchinson Sportsman Club. Bikes and cars wait to speed off on the Bender’s Memorial Ride. Participants relax and enjoy some food at Mahoney’s Bar & Grille before the ride.
Two participants pose before the race begins. Participants enjoy the sunshine at the Dogwood restaurant while they wait for the Bender’s Memorial Ride to begin. Participants toast to a successful event and the donation that will be made to the Make-A-Wish Foundation ®. Event workers, including organizer Donna Miller (left) of Miller's Yamaha, are busy selling raffle tickets. A lucky prize winner shows off her gift basket and her cute puppy.
