Tour de Tech Terrace this Satuday

The Fall 2011 Tour de Tech Terrace will take place this Saturday.  The following news release was sent to UNIT News:

The community of Tech Terrace will host the 16th bi-annual Tour De Tech Terrace at 3 p.m. on Oct. 1.

Just as in the spring, canned goods will take the place of an entrance fee. The most recent TDTT garnered more than 1,500 pounds of canned goods that were donated to the South Plains Food Bank. The fall TDTT is hopeful to double this amount and will challenge each participant to do his or her part in reaching this goal.

The fall TDTT will include a designated stopping point and provided brief entertainment hosted by Red Bull. The Lubbock Police Department has agreed to provide a supervised escort of the Tour, as well as patrol supervision to insure the safety of the riders, as well as order within the community.

As in previous Tours, the organizers have not lost sight of their devotion to giving back to the Tech Terrace community, as well as to the city of Lubbock through the associated canned food drive and look to advance further in the development of future philanthropic efforts.

The Tour begins at 3019 33rd Street.  There are five scheduled stops:
2512 27th Street
3304 30th Street
2808 23rd Street
3010 31st Street
20th and Akron (Lutheran Student Ministries Parking Lot)
Note:  Enter the Lutheran Student Ministries church parking lot from 20th Street.  Do not use the Cafe J Parking Lot.

The Tour is scheduled to wrap up around 7:00 pm.

Be aware of partcipants in these areas.
