Join us Saturday, May 27 at Kitsch WinesExplore local wineries in support of Canucks Autism Network (CAN). 

The "DM Ride" is for cyclists of all abilities -- and non-cyclists too! This year, Wicked Tours is offering a tour bus for those who want to support the cause, but don't bike.

Most importantly, your participation will go a long way in supporting children, youth & adults on the autism spectrum in Kelowna!

The Stober Foundation will be doubling all donations up to $150k, so your fundraising efforts will go twice as far!

Register by April 1st and receive a commemorative long-sleeve shirt!
