2006 Statistics

A Decade of Rides - for motorcycles
Since 2001, Dream Ride has been bringing people together on the open road to celebrate the achievements of Special Olympics Connecticut athletes. Each year thousands of motorcycle and car enthusiasts rev up their engines to honor this worthy cause.

After nine years and over $965,000 in fundraising, Dream Ride is back and better than ever. Since 2001, this special event has brought motorcycle riders and car enthusiasts together to celebrate the achievements of Special Olympics Athletes, as well as help raise awareness and funds for a worthy cause. We’re proud to ride out our first decade with our official sponsors, Bozzuto’s Inc. and The Hometown Foundation, Inc. We look forward to seeing many familiar faces this year, and are excited to welcome newcomers to this monumental movement. Saturday August 21, 2010 and Sunday August 22, 2010 will be an amazing day filled with fun, great food, music, motors, and inspiration

The 2010 event is more than a charity ride for motorcycles and a show for cars; it’s a gathering of people interested in camaraderie, helping out a good cause and having a great time. We hope you can join us for this incredible day. Join us as we welcome 8 states and 29 satellite locations to Dream Ride 2010.

Cruisin’ For A Cause - for automobiles
Celebrate the cars and trucks we love! Papa's Chrysler Dodge Jeep is pleased to announce Dream Cruise 2010 to benefit Special Olympics Connecticut in association with the Annual Dream Ride.

On Sunday, August 22nd 2010, join us as we “cruise for a cause,” and participate in a day filled with great vehicles, great smiles and tons of inspiration. Car enthusiasts from all over the northeast will help celebrate the achievements of Special Olympians by participating in this inspiring event. The festivities will start early and pre-registration is required. Registration begins at 7:00am with the Dream Cruise getting underway at 9:30am cruising from the Papa’s Chrysler Dodge Jeep 585 East Main Street location in New Britain, Connecticut to the Dream Ride 2010 location at the Farmington Club in Farmington, Connecticut. All participants will enjoy the Dream Ride festivities of the day at the Farmington Club.

In addition, on Saturday, August 21st Papa’s will hold a “Dream Cruise Party” with live music, great food, door prizes and lots of great cars on display to enjoy. All makes and models welcome.

A Decade Of Dreams
The continued mission of Dream Ride 2010 is to raise much-needed funds for the thousands of Special Olympics Athletes around the country. As an organization, Special Olympics helps foster lifelong development of children and adults with intellectual disabilities.

With this cause near and dear to our hearts, we are once again proud to announce our partnership with The Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics. This is Special Olympics’ largest grass-roots fundraiser and public awareness campaign. Annually, more than 85,000 volunteer law enforcement officers carry the Flame of Hope™ alongside Special Olympics athletes into the Opening Ceremonies of the local competitions and State, National and World Games. The Torch Run reaches 46 nations, 12 Canadian Provinces and 50 United States, and raises millions for local Special Olympics programs.

Your participation in Dream Ride and support of the Special Olympics mission will help keep dreams alive in communities everywhere.
