Hello, and welcome to Ashley’s Ride, a website created in loving memory of our daughter, Ashley Nicole Sexton. Ashley was diagnosed with a devastating disease called Neurofibromatosis (NF). At the age of 21, she died during her third surgery from this disease.
In July, 2008 Ashley’s family and friends held the first annual “Ashley’s Ride,” a benefit motorcycle ride, dinner and auction to not only help raise awareness of NF, but raise money to help find a cure so that others like her don’t have to suffer and lose their precious life to NF. The third ride was in July, 2010 and in three years, the total amount raised came to $59,000.
The fight continues on, and we invite you to be a part of the Ashley’s Ride. The ride begins at the Press Box in Mancelona and returns at about 4:30 p.m. Upon our return, you’ll enjoy a pig roast, live and silent auctions, and live entertainment. For more information, please download and print the flyer (PDF format), and visit this website often for updates. This is a family event, so bring your kids! We have games and a bounce house for them to enjoy. Kids 10 and under are Free.
A special THANK YOU to all that continue to support “Ashley’s Ride!”
Remember you don’t have to have a motorcycle to enjoy this event, you can follow in your vehicle or just see us at the Press Box for dinner, live entertainment and auctions.
