1980s Rocker Served as Grand Marshall for Bikers for Babies Ride
December 6, 2009
Known for his days as a heavy metal rocker with Twisted Sister in the 1980s, Dee Snider always makes an impression. Fortunately for the March of Dimes, Snider uses his star power and passion for motorcycles to help children in need.
Snider once again led the March of Dimes Bikers for Babies Charity Ride as its Grand Marshall and National Event Spokesman. The ride took place on Sunday, September 13th and featured featured approximately 1000 bikers riding from Middletown, CT to the Elks Lodge in Westbrook, CT.
Each year Snider leads the ride and visits the University of Connecticut Medical Center’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. As the father of 2 premature children, Snider has been a steadfast contributor to children health initiatives.
Proceeds from this year’s biker event will support research and support programs and the University of Connecticut. For a recap of this year’s event and for information about next year’s event when scheduled, visit the official site for Bikers for Babies. The 2010 event will be a great way to enjoy a great day of riding and support neonatal research.
