We are canceling Pedal to Empower Teens (PTET) for 2025
Dear Friends -
The founder of Kingdom Center has recently announced that he will no longer be leading Kingdom Center. He will be donating all of Kingdom Center's resources, materials, and equipment to the City of DeRidder. The city mayor, Michael D. Harris, has announced that the city will be looking at the best way to move forward.
With the uncertainty surrounding this transition to new leadership, I have decided to cancel the PTET for this year. I am so grateful for your support of our mission and this event but want to offer you the option of getting a refund for your registration fee.
Our organization still has bills to pay during the transition, so we would certainly appreciate an offer to accept the fees as a donation. If you are interested in getting a refund, I would like to send you a check to avoid additional processing fees. Please let me know if you would like to donate, receive a check, or need a direct digital refund (less processing fees).
I want to personally thank you for your support of this mission to empower the youth of our community. I know they have been blessed by your participation!
I enjoyed working with fellow bicycling enthusiasts and hope to see you at another event here in DeRidder or in our area.
Wishing you all the best and praying that you are blessed with safe routes, strong bikes, and an enjoyable ride wherever your bicycle takes you!
Sincerely,
Tracy
