Ottawa Ride for Dad Survivors Vanguard

The 2025 Ottawa Ride For Dad is coming up on Saturday (June 7^th). You are invited to come out for this very special 25^th anniversary of the Ottawa Ride for Dad, and join your fellow PCSO members to be part of the Prostate Cancer Survivors Vanguard.

As in past years, the PCSO Survivor Vanguard will form up to cheer on the bikers at the start of the ride. They will be circling the Ottawa Hospital General Campus (including CHEO and the Cancer Centre) before they head out to the first poker run stop at Kemptville Public School. This will be a fun morning with refreshments (e.g. coffee, water, muffins) and seating will be provided. Opening ceremonies will begin around 8:30AM and the riders will begin departing at 9:30AM.

The ride this year again departs from the Ottawa Hospital Campus, 501 Smythe Road (Map Link) and will finish up at the Canadian Tire Centre, with a live concert, food, a 50/50 drive and other activities, and our PCSO Awareness Booth will be on display.

Please feel free to join us for this great event. Spouses/partners/family members are welcome as well. Please let us know by replying to this email (.(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)) so that we have an idea of numbers (the more the merrier!). Please plan on arriving at the Ottawa Hospital by 7:45AM Saturday morning. When you enter the Ottawa Hospital Campus off Smythe Road follow the route here and Ride for Dad volunteers will be there to direct you to the reserved parking area.

If you have a Ride for Dad Vanguard t-shirt from a previous year, please wear it. We'll have some on hand if you need one (note that sizes may be limited).

Looking forward to seeing you for this event!
