Mark Mansell rode over 10,000 miles coast to coast last summer...on a bicycle...to raise awareness and over $100,000 for Leader Dogs for the Blind. This year, Mansell's wife Debbie, will join him as they motorcycle through all 48 lower states in just 24 days. Lions Clubs, which are deeply involved with Leader Dog, are coming together to host a meet and greet picnic fundraiser while the riders are in Michigan.


This family-friendly event will feature live music by acoustic duo Sharon Tse and John Finan, a chance to meet Mark and Debbie, the opportunity to visit with future Leader Dog puppies, picnic food available for purchase, raffles, a live auction, and more. The event is open to the public and will be held rain or shine; there is plenty of covered seating available.

Leader Dog provides mobility training and guide dogs to blind and visually impaired people from around the world. There is no cost to the client for either the 27 day residential training course in Rochester, MI or for the dog.
