Chief Paul VandeGraaf
“As chief of the Cobourg Police Service, I have seen first hand how early intervention through Rebound Child & Youth Services can change the course of a child’s life.”
Ria Colquhoun
“The ride distance was a challenge so that provided the opportunity to raise funds for a great service.”
Sandy Sweet
“I am riding for Rebound this year because I believe that the support Rebound Child & Youth Services provides to children, youth, and their families in our community is invaluable and highly-deserving of fundraising support. It also doesn’t hurt that I will get to spend the day riding through beautiful Northumberland County and enjoying the sights.”
Glenn Finlay
“I felt it would be a great opportunity to raise money and awareness for Rebound Child & Youth Services in our community. I enjoy riding and try to participate in a fundraiser each year. I'm excited to raise funds for your organization and appreciate the support I get from my friends and family.”
Nicole Beatty
“I’m riding in support of Rebound to help break down barriers so children and youth can access essential mental health support. When I was younger I turned to triathlons and cycling to cope with my own struggles with mental health. The Ride for Rebound – and the charity – is a cause close to my heart. Ride on!”
