The Northwestern Regional Library will host the seventh annual Ride for Readers on Saturday, June 9th. All proceeds from the Freeborne’s Ride for Readers will help purchase ebooks for Alleghany, Stokes, Surry and Yadkin County libraries.

Riders will meet at Freeborne’s Eatery and Lodge in Laurel Springs.

Everyone is invited to ride a motorcycle, classic car, or an everyday car. Riders will meet at Freeborne’s and join in on a ride from there or create their own on the way to Freeborne’s.

There will be an optional Poker Run, and tickets for a 50/50 raffle and prize drawings will be available. The day will conclude back at Freeborne’s at 1:30 pm for lunch and live music.
