Description

Join Hospice of the Red River Valley for the 15th Annual Ole’s Ride, taking place on Saturday, August 24th. This event serves as a tribute to Richard “Ole” Barten, who lost his battle to cancer in February 2011. During his final months, Ole received care from Hospice of the Red River Valley. To express their gratitude, Ole’s family initiated this event as a way to support and give back to Hospice of the Red River Valley.
