Losquadro Encourages Participation in North Fork Soldier Ride

Mount Sinai, New York – Legislator Daniel P. Losquadro (R-Shoreham) is encouraging all to participate in the North Fork Soldier Ride,  the first cycling event of its kind on the North Fork of Long Island. Proceeds from the ride will help support our nation’s wounded soldiers and raise money for the Wounded Warrior Project. Legislator Losquadro works with members of the Rocky Point VFW to raise money for wounded warriors.

“Providing assistance to those injured in battle is the least we can do for the brave men and women who have sacrificed so much for our country,” Legislator Losquadro said. “I encourage as many people as possible to participate in this worthy cause.”

“All of our troops are special,” said Joe Cognitore, Commander of the Rocky Point VFW Post 6249. “For those that go that little extra and raise money for them, I applaud them and support them anyway possible. We at Post 6249 thank and appreciate all who support our troops.”

The North Fork Soldier Ride will take place on Saturday, September 18 at Mitchell Park in Greenport, located at 115 Front Street. Riders may choose from a 5, 12, 30 and 40 mile course. Registration fees include a t-shirt, light breakfast and barbecue lunch upon return. For more information, please log on to Soldier Ride.
