On Sunday, October 27, 2024, the Post 178 Color Guard had the honor of presenting the Nation’s Colors and Service Flags during the opening ceremonies of the 2024 Teddy Bear Ride hosted by the Children’s Advocacy Center of Collin County.
Each year motorcycle enthusiasts gather for one-of-a-kind fundraiser and awareness event where motorcycle riders make their way across Collin County to deliver their all-important passengers, new teddy bears! These precious stuffed animals will make their way into the arms of children who receive a forensic interview at the Center, providing comfort and hope as they begin their journey to healing.
