That is it. (Click here for a screenshot) With your single click, you have brought us closer to bringing a breakfast program to all PEI schools by 2020. Also, because our event allows off-island riders to raise money for their local community, our event can raise money for any breakfast program anywhere.
Please consider passing this email / message along to people you know, co-workers, facebook friends, etc. because with one single click of the mouse can be a great benefit to so many kids.
The event with the most "likes" wins the $5,000.The leading event has 202 people; I know we can have a least 500 people.
The PEI Government released last Thursday the results of their study, Prince Edward Island: Mental Fitness, Physical Activity and Healthy Eating (Page 25 highlights breakfast consumption). This study highlights many facets for kids in grade 5 to 12 attending PEI schools. Of particular importance, is the number of children who are not eating breakfast on a daily basis: 39 % of males and 48 % of females.
Equally disturbing is how although breakfast consumption decreases with age, there are still 30% of male grade 5 students and 34% of female grade 5 students that are not eating breakfast daily.

Our prizes and gear that riders elected to purchase for 2009 have been ordered. There were some changes in logos that needed to occur before final submission. Please note that if you purchased items after the event, or are eligible for prizes, that you will be receiving your prizes / items around the second week of January 2010. Thanks so much!
There are no questions or details too small. We have the answers to many of your questions. We even have the answers to questions you have not asked (yet). And, if we don't have the answer, we will make one up very quickly and post it online to share. View our BFBC Rider Handbook.
