Cranksgiving Miramichi
The event is simple: you show up to the grocery store (Atlantic Superstore in Newcastle) and purchase items that are needed at the Eel Ground Food Bank. Then, we bike them out to the Eel Ground Food Bank located at the Natoaganeg community food centre and donate what we purchased. Approximate distance is 5.5 km – great for a cruise.
There are prizes for Most Dollar Value Donated, Most Pounds Donated (by bike), and Most Points Donated (points are awarded based on a ranking system you will be given for various items – which gives an idea of what is needed the most).
What you will need: bike, money for donations (as much as you are comfortable with), and a backpack/ pannier/ trailer to transport goods.
If you would like to volunteer with this event please contact Mikey on Facebook. And you can visit www.cranksgiving.org for more general information about the event and its history.
