I had the privilege of being the official Grand Marshall for the 42nd Annual A.B.A.T.E Motorcycle Toy Run For The Kids. It was an honor riding alongside our great WMMR Program Director Bill Weston and his wife Connie who have been riding in this toy run for many years by my side!
On Sunday, November 5, 2023, the parade took place. It was a 10-mile parade route with an After Party at Rivers Casino. Also, I got to present a new award this year. GRAND MARSHALL’S CHOICE FOR BEST BIKE. It was amazing to present the plaque to Rob Stecher.
The Delaware Valley A.B.A.T.E. (Alliance of Bikers Aimed Toward Education) presents the parade every year. Delaware Valley A.B.A.T.E. of PA Chapter is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization. Through the assistance of hundreds of volunteers and countless hours, they are dedicated to making this event one of the largest and most successful events in Philadelphia.
Loads of bikers strapped a new, unwrapped toy to their bikes. There were thousands of riders to hand deliver donations to the US Marine Corps’ Toys for Tots program. The whole event benefits underprivileged children throughout our area.
Here are some of Lisa Marie Hunt’s photos from The 42nd Annual A.B.A.T.E. Motorcycle Toy Run For The Kids! Benefiting The Marines Toys For Tots Program. Honored to be The 8x Grand Marshall for this wonderful event for a good cause. Thank you so much for donating all these toys for the children and to the beautiful day God gave us! Can’t wait to do it again the 1st Sunday after Halloween in November 2024! Doing it FOR THE KIDS…They always come first in my book!!!
