CLARION, Pa. — Proudly supporting their local community, UFP Parker, LLC is once again sponsoring the ALF Motorcycle Cruise-in on Sunday, October 3.
Crisp mornings mean the 68th Annual Autumn Leaf Festival will be upon us sooner than we know it.
The festival runs from Saturday, October 2, to Sunday, October 10, 2021. Parking begins at 9:00 a.m. with the show running from Noon until 4:00 p.m. At this time, 7th Avenue to Weaver Place, downtown Clarion will be lined with chrome, steel, and leather. Coordinated by Clarion County A.B.A.T.E. (Alliance of Bikers Aimed Towards Education), the organizers of the event askes each participant to donate a non-perishable, non-expired food item to be eligible for judging. All food donations will be given to “Foodstock.” Foodstock is a food drive held annually during the Autumn Leaf Festival activities.
During the event, children 12 and under are encouraged to sign up for A.B.A.T.E.’s bicycle giveaway. The organization gives out 2 bicycles at 4:00 p.m., the end of the Cruise-In. Contestants must be present to win.
The Motorcycle Cruise-In also marks the beginning of Clarion County A.B.A.T.E.’s yearly Christmas Toy Drive. The toy drive, in conjunction with Charitable Deeds and Services, distributes hundreds of toys to children in need in the local area. Toys and monetary donations for the toy drive will also be accepted.
If you are interested in becoming a member or seeing what Clarion County A.B.A.T.E. is about, you can join them on the second Sunday of the month at 10:00 a.m. Meetings are held at the Clarion Moose Lodge, 401 Grand Ave, Clarion, PA 16214.
A representative from UFP Parker, LLC will also be on hand at the Cruise-In to discuss career opportunities within their growing company as well as giving out cool swag to members of the community.
