鈥淭his will be a lot of fun, we have a fantastic relationship with the 亚洲天堂 Lake fire department and they have been very supportive of the event. Saying that, we do not want to lose and we have called in some special back up to help us.鈥

More than $6,100 has been raised for Tour de North and its fundraising goal is $310,000.

Local band The Hampsters will perform live until noon and Good Vibration Productions and DJ Services will play throughout the game.
