Ottawa Rickshaws Hosts

Ottawa’s Only Crohn’s Disease Fund-Raiser:

The Great Crohn’s Crusade

Saturday March 12, 2011

7 - 10pm / Tunes by Big Mac Daddy

Proudly sponsored by CKCU 93.1 FM & MERCURY

The Great Crohn’s Crusade is a fund-raiser event organized and hosted by Ottawa Rickshaws to raise money for Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) research and to raise awareness for such illnesses. It is officially endorsed by the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation of Canada (CCFC) to which all funds will be donated. It will be Ottawa’s first and only major IBD fund-raiser. Crohn's Disease is an autoimmune disease in which the body's immune system attacks the gastrointestinal tract causing inflammation. It causes serious chronic pain that can last for life. There is no cure and it can take a long period of time to put the disease into remission. 1 in every 160 Canadians has an IBD.

On March 12th, 2011 Ottawa Rickshaws will be hosting a silent auction from 7pm to 10 pm. The auction will take place at La Petite Mort Gallery where the public will be given the opportunity to bid on rickshaw runners. Bidders will be informed of each runner's strengths and weaknesses so they can bid accordingly. The winners of each bid will be permitted to participate in a rickshaw scavenger hunt across Ottawa. The auction event will also have food and drinks, a raffle, and a donation jar.

The scavenger hunt will take place on April 2nd, 2011 where participants will ride in rickshaws pulled by their selected driver. It will last approximately 3 hours and will involve games, trivia, object collection, and other fun activities. The first team to complete a list of such tasks will be considered the winner. The winning team will earn a yet-to-be-donated prize (possibly airline tickets), and all teams will be treated to a complimentary lunch donated by Hard Rock Café. Current sponsors include: Hard Rock Café, M&M Meats, CADLink Technology, OAK Computing, Local Lawns, and Metro Glebe.
