Baldwinsville — Join other motorcycle enthusiasts for a ride around Otisco Lake in honor and remembrance of David “DJ” Ragonese, an avid rider and beloved son, husband, brother and friend.
The Ride for Rags, held Saturday, Oct. 6, will start at noon from Mercer Park in Baldwinsville, where it will also finish approximately two hours later. Registration is at 11 a.m. The benefit will start at 3 p.m. for non-riders. There will be live music, food and raffles, and if the weather is bad, the benefit will be moved to the Mohegan Manor’s ballroom, only a few blocks away from the park. Cost is $25 for the ride and benefit.
According to ridefordj.com:
“This benefit and fund was set up to help DJ’s widow, Rita, and the little girl in her belly. The benefit and fund will help to support living expenses and educational support for little DJ. Rita had hoped to be a housewife and stay-at-home mom. It was her desire to home-school her child and put the family first. If this fund will help Rita to fulfill her desire to stay at home with her child, for as long as possible, then that is something we can all be thankful for.”
