WHY THIS RIDE
The Kiwanis Club of North Shore, Long Island is proud to sponsor this event for 12 years and has supported the Kiwanis Pediatric Trauma Center, based at North Shore University Hospital in Manhasset, New York.

The KPTC is the only such facility in down state New York equipped for and dedicated to the care of children who have suffered traumatic injury. In addition to the services in Manhasset, Kiwanis and the KPTC reach out to many communities serving them in other ways, including providing special pediatric trauma equipment to the emergency medical teams and local fire medical units.
