TEXAS BROTHERHOOD RIDE
We are coming to your town!
The Texas Brotherhood Ride consists of Firefighters, Police Officers and EMS personnel who ride bicycles to honor emergency responders who died in the line of duty. Our mission is to provide emotional and financial support to their families and co-workers.
This year we will be honoring 14 Brothers who paid the ultimate sacrifice. We will begin our journey in Hempstead and ride to Austin, via Dallas and Ft Worth, traveling over 650 miles, averaging 80-100 miles each day. Those we ride for this year include:
Loren Y. Vasquez – Waller County Sherriff Office
Raymond Bradley Jimmerson – Nacogdoches County Sherriff Office
M.V. Hudson – New London Volunteer Fire Department
Earl James “Jamie” Givens, III – Dallas Police Department
Rogelio Santander, Jr. – Dallas Police Department
Paul Scott Ragsdale – US Department of Justice – ATF
David Charles Sherrard – Richardson Police Department
Garrett Willis Hull – Fort Worth Police Department
Andy Loller – Weatherford Fire Department
Caleb Scott – North Richland Hills Fire Department
Damon Charles Allen – Texas Department of Public Safety
K9 Kastor – Waco Police Department
Charles Whites – Round Rock Police Department
Devon Coney – Austin Fire Department
We will be riding through Anderson on Saturday, Aug 17th arriving at approximately 8:30 am to 9:30 am. We are planning on riding into town on Hwy 90 from Navasota and leaving on 1774 headed to Richards. We encourage any participation from local Fire and Police Departments.
We really don’t intend to get in anyone’s way, but it would be great to see apparatus/vehicles there or along the route to support our team. Most importantly, we just want your town to be informed of our event.
