It was a pleasant afternoon for the 35 participants of the an­ nual lone St. Jude Bike-a-thon on Sunday, April 28. The pledges are not all turned in yet, but organizers expect that a "good amount" was raised for the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee. Miranda McElligott and Adam McCabe led the riders in from Ruggs, a 22-mile route, completing the tour in approx­ imately one hour and 42 min­ utes. The other riders followed in groups of two or more. A stiff headwind and winter- damaged roads slowed the ride somewhat. Alan Rietmann and Tyler Raible paced the group riding a one-mile circuit within the lone city limits, with 13 laps each. Kyle Palmateer, Kimber­ ly Morris, Abby Key and Missy Baker all had 10 laps or more. The deadline for turning in pledges is Monday, May 13. Funds should be turned in with pledge sheets in an envelope to the Bank of Eastern Oregon in lone or to ride coordinators, Janet Thompson or Anne Morter. In Heppner, partici­ pants are asked to get their funds to Judy Davis. Everyone is urged to turn in his money on time so that t-shirts can be ordered. Funds raised from this event and others like it benefit the St. Jude C hildren's Research Hospital, a leading children's cancer research facility.
