Cobourg Council – Support Cobourg Police Chief’s Big Ride

In City Hall

By Cecilia Nasmith/Today’s Northumberland

Councillor Aaron Burchat urges members of the community to support Cobourg Police Chief Paul VandeGraaf in his fundraiser for Rebound Child and Youth Services Northumberland.

It’s a 90-km. bike ride that is expected to take place June 12 to raise funds and awareness of the agency, with VandeGraaf and eight other riders participating.

The goal is to raise $20,000, Burchat said, and the event has had several roadblocks and date changes due to COVID-19. But the need continues, he said.

“$25 provides a youth with homework help for a month, $50 gives a child the chance to participate in programming for a month, $150 provides a child or youth with one-one-one consulting services,” he listed.

“Anyone who wants to donate, check Rebound Child and Youth Services Northumberland and support the chief in his goal.”
