RJR 2010

This past Sunday was the official Ride Janie Ride event. It turned out to not only be a beautiful day weather-wise, but a wonderful ride, as well! Over 800 riders drove the 65 mile long ride from Villa Park to Joliet. It was both amazing and overwhelming to watch the two-mile long stretch of motorcyles that lined the street. The RJR members and riders continued to be amazed by the generousity and kindness of the Lakeview students and staff. They even displayed our check on the stage! Here are a few of the pictures taken at the event.
