The Red Liner Motor Cycle Club sponsored a Pancake Breakfast at Sherman Park Lutheran School. Kyana (Speed Diva) Myles invited I-Witness to join them.
In the last Black Motor Cycle clubs and Bikers Sport Clubs have begin moving toward service in their community. No more do they want to hold the bad boy/girl image that the major media has always portrayed them to be. I-Witness over the years has covered Rider Clubs doing good and positive things. Many of the Riders are just like everyone else, they work or own business, are soldiers, parents the difference they have a passion for motorcycles and they love to ride.
Joe (Jo Joe) is the president of the Red Liners here in Milwaukee, there are eight other chapters nationwide. One of their members Lewis Byera works at Sherman Park Lutheran School and he thought it would be a good idea if they did a fundraiser for the school.
It was decided that they would host a Pan Cake Breakfast with all the trimmings. They had plenty of support the Pastor of Sherman Park Lutheran Church, Jeff Miller, the principal of the school Chris Couillard, Johnny Johnson Jr. the Youth Ministry Outreach coordinator and all the members of their club to cook and serve.
When I-witness arrived they had it rolling, pancakes hot off the grill, bacon, sausage, juices. The children loved it. Cierra Rudd a 5th grader at Hawthorne Elementary School, truly enjoyed her breakfast, she said it is so goooood, Holla!
The Red Liners also had a raffle, vendors like ABM Shoes donated shoes as raffle gifts. They also had goodie bags for the children filled with treats and tagged with inspirational sayings, To your enemy-forgive, To your opponent-have tolerance, To a friend-your heart, To a stranger-Charty, To your parents honor and to yourself-Respect.
President Jo Joe stated they were also doing a drawing of five family names and on Christmas Eve, they are going to deliver those families gift card Christmas presents. All the donations will go to the schools.
Hey, Red Liners, giving back to one’s community is the soul of human beings and it was about what Jesus would do. I-Witness loves the way you do the things you do.
