Kinsmen Ride for a Lifetime

On Friday, June 22 Evelyn, Ryan and Joshua Crowell of Airdrie served as honorary ride marshals for the Kinsmen Ride for a Lifetime in support of Kids Cancer Care. The motorcyclists rode in honour of the children’s brother Christian who passed away from childhood cancer in 2013 at the age of five.

Donning do-rags, Evelyn, Ryan and Joshua helped kick-start the annual ride by sounding the megaphone and dropping the start flag. Their parents Megan and Chris Crowell were also there to share their family’s cancer journey and to thank the motorcyclists in their children’s honour.

What our families are saying

Before cancer, I was reserved and timid, but now look at me! Look at what I have been through and what I know I can do. Kids Cancer Care is helping to shape the person I am today.

What our families are saying

Kids Cancer Care has given us another family, one who understands what we are going through, a support system for when we are tired. And it gives us a chance to give back too.

What our families are saying

Cancer is scary. It changes the way you look at the world and how you feel about yourself. By being with other kids like me, I felt a new normal and I feel like I have a place in this world again.
