The Watchmen Crew and Noize for Toyz

At J.P. Outpost after a beautiful ladies ride, Ride Like a Local spoke with Tammy Wilson.  Tammy is a board member and admin assistant with Noize for Toyz.

Tammy has a few hats she wears at work.  She counts inventory, gathers donations, posts on social media, and advertising.  She is wherever she is needed.  She feels her most important job is getting their name out there and making sure everyone knows who they are.

Even more importantly, Tammy has 5 children and 2 step children.  Tammys children are all involved and learn that giving back to the community teaches then valuable life skills and will end up as great adults.  They all love the riding community.

Next we met with Avery Chalifour.  She is a rider and the Youth Council Leader for Noize for Toyz.  As a young rider, Avery feels the support of her group, has several "moms" within the group, and has also learned how to act and behave around other riders.  She feels it's like having her own tribe with a whole lot of moral support.

Avery says coming out of high school, she saw a lot of kids struggling and it meant a lot to her to know that there was someone out there to help them.  Her goal is to bring more young people into the Noize for Toyz group that there is someone to take over so they may continue their service for years to come.  They try to bring in more members with each event.

Ride Like a Local met up with Barry Koenig a rider visiting from Blackfalds.  He was out for the day to show his support for everyone.  After the ride he was off to Prince George to visit family and tour the scenery.
He made sure to stop and thank Renee and Belt Drive Betty for all the hard work she does and the information provided for the riders.

We then met with Keith Barron, the marketing manager for Secure Energy in Grande Prairie AB.  Secure Energy has sponsored many events within the riding community including Noize for Toyz and Toys for Tots.  Secure Energy showed up at the poker rally sporting a shiny new barbecue!
Secure Energy works in the oil field taking care of solids, fluid control and waste disposal all over Alberta, Saskatchewan, British Columbia and North Dakota.  Secure Energy has been around for about 15 years.

After a great ladies ride, Ride Like a Local spoke with Dani Chalifour, president of Noize for Toyz/Peace Country Noize for Toyz.  Their organization focuses on making sure kids have what they need for Christmas as well as in the hospital.  The ladies run held today collected money and toys for hospital programs, several food banks, and Odyssey House.  Helping these and making sure their kids have what they need over the holidays is one less worry for them.
After the ride, the ladies end up at J.P. Outpost Fusion Grill & Bar.  About 15-18 ladies go there after every ride as they are very supportive of the biking community.  They have a great location, great parking, and a dance floor!!

The Watchmen Crew and Noize for Toyz

At the Watchmen Crews Poker Rally in Grande Prairie, Ride Like a Local spoke with the Vice President Darrin Stuffs.  The first rally of the season they were out there to meet people and have a great time.  This year they were raising money for Christmas Angels.  Every year The Watchmen Crew makes a donation to a family in need at Christmas.

Secure Energy was on site that day.  They supplied the trailer, all the food and all the drinks to ensure all the money raised would go directly to charity.  They are an awesome company that supports many fundraisers in the community.

When asked why The Watchmen Crew fund raises for so many charities involving children, Darrin had this to say "We support kids because they are the most vulnerable people in our society.  Helping them can build good adults from a solid childhood.  It is important that they are involved in sports and activities so that children have healthy functioning lives.  We can make a big difference and change the lives of a child one at a time."
