Our meeting  on July 17th was all about Tour de Tonka, the bicycle ride sponsored by Minnetonka Community Education. Tin brought along his staff members who are involved with the program, and they were introduced and filled in many of the details of the annual event.
 
This year is the 13th anniversary staging of the event, and almost 3500 riders participated last year. With eight routes ranging from 6 miles to 100 miles, there is an event for all bike riders. In the past, there have been rides from 45 states, and the routes go through 24 different cities.
 
Volunteers are needed – 616 were used last year, and because of an added route, more are needed this year. Contact Tim Litfin to volunteer – short hours, and only one time!  Proceeds from the event go to ICA Food shelf.
