Rocky Mountain Harley-Davidson joins The Honor Run

The Colorado Coordinators of The Honor Run are very excited and pleased to announce that Rocky Mountain Harley-Davidson has signed on as the exclusive Harley Davidson dealer sponsoring the Colorado venue of the The HONOR RUN.

Kathy Yevoli, one of the owners of Rocky Mountain Harley-Davidson said “We are thrilled that we were asked to be a sponsor for the ride, and honored to be able to contribute to the efforts to help the Fisher House Foundation. It is a great cause and absolutely vital to the families and support of our returning and injured veterans.”

For more than two decades, the Rocky Mountain Harley-Davidson has sponsored The Toy Run to The Children's Hospital, an event that brings thousands of toys to the sick and injured children at The Children's Hospital of Denver. This one-day event brings in so many toys that every child who stays at The Children's Hospital throughout the year is able to receive a gift donated by a participant in the Toy Run. Last year alone, the Rocky Mountain Harley Owners Group and other Toy Run participants donated so many toys that the toys had to be stored in a warehouse until the time that they were needed. Over the years, the Toy Run has grown from a few hundred dedicated individuals to several thousand bikers and countless supporters … even if the weather is horrible.

Rocky Mountain Harley-Davidson celebrated its 30th Anniversary this year, and throughout its history, it’s that community spirit and commitment to help those in need that prompted Vinny Terranova, another owner of Rocky Mountain Harley-Davidson to say “The Honor Run is an event that we have committed to because it’s the right thing to do. All bikers, regardless of their affiliation or what they ride should support The Honor Run.”
