Dragon*Con is teaming up with the American Diabetes Association and you can help.

Dragon*Con is forming Team Dragon for the upcoming Tour De Cure, Sunday May 20th, in Fairburn, Georgia. We are currently looking for members to join the team and help raise funds for the Diabetes Association. (You do not have to be a staff member of Dragon*Con to join the team.)

The Tour is a ride, not a race, with routes designed for everyone from the occasional rider to the experienced cyclist. There will be a 8 mile Family Fun ride, and rides of 25k (15.5 miles), 50k (31 Miles) and 100k (62 Miles), so riders of all levels are invited to join the team. You’ll travel a route supported from start to finish with rest stops, food to fuel your journey and fans to cheer you on!

Each member of the team that raises the minimum donation of $150 will receive a team bag consisting of the following goodies;

• A Dragon*Con Shoulder bag
• A 2007 Dragon*Con T-Shirt
• A Water Bottle – Courtesy of Outback Bikes in Little 5 Points
• A Dragon*Con Key Ring
• A Dragon*Con Bracelet
• 1 Bottle of Propel Energy Drink
• 1 Marathon Energy Bar
• 1 banquet ticket for the awards banquet at Dragon*Con 2007 – the cycling group will have a reserved table and will be recognized for their efforts.

• A Saturday Only membership for Dragon*Con 2007
• In addition, we are working on more goodies for the team.

The person that raises the most money for the event will also receive the following prize packet;
• A 4 day membership to Dragon*Con 2007
• Saturday night Hotel room paid for by the convention and
• A recognition plaque for their efforts from Dragon*Con
