Wild Pink Yonder - On the trail to a cure...
 

This is the most fun you'll have with your horse this summer!

     

Planned Manitoba 2011 route

Our purpose is to raise money that will be used for breast cancer research.

Participants come from far and wide to ride off into the Wild Pink Yonder. Some bring their saddle horses. Others bring wagons or buggies.

You don’t have to ride the whole distance, and this is not an endurance ride. We travel an easy 10-15 miles a day -- and we take care of everything, including meals, entertainment and a safe place to spend the night.

Think of this as an all-inclusive holiday ... one that will help ride breast cancer into the ground!

All funds raised by Wild Pink Yonder
in Manitoba will stay in Manitoba
and be used for breast cancer research
as directed by CancerCare Manitoba!

 

In Alberta, we took an outrageously pink covered wagon and an entourage of outriders called The Hole in the Head Gang to 22 towns throughout central Alberta. Our purpose was (and still is) to raise money that will be used to fight breast cancer.

Riders came from far and wide to Ride Off Into the Wild Pink Yonder.

Towns along our route rose to the occasion, offering us a place to stay for the night and, in most cases, feeding our group.

We sweetened the pot for towns by incorporating a contest we call Pinkest Little Town in the West. It offers towns an opportunity to go wild (and pink) -- and potentially win a free country music concert. The winning town can throw open the doors for everyone in town or charge admission and use the money to, say, build a new playground. The concert is theirs to do with as they wish. Our winner also wins bragging rights in the form of town entrance signs that proclaim them to be The Pinkest Little Town in the West.

In many towns the breakfasts and suppers weren’t just for our riders. They were for locals too, and became part of the town’s fundraising strategy to win Pinkest Little Town in the West. This was particularly beneficial because it raised significant funds for our cause while still making our visit fun for everyone -- and it helped us keep our costs down so that we could write a larger cheque for breast cancer research, treatment and education.

We now extend the challenge to Manitoba towns to top the "pinkness" of Alberta's towns!!

Our Prize for the Pinkest Town in Manitoba to be booked free of charge by the winning town in the upcoming year is the band "Two Dollar Pistol"!! These guys play rock, country and more... you may remember Craig Wallace from his days with "Free Ride" - they just played Vita Canada Day, they play the Palomino regularly, are playing Beausejour Rodeo and more...
