A complimentary shuttle service will also be available from City Limits at the Village Shopping Center, and from River Road Shopping Center.
Your participation in ChildSavers' events has a real and important impact on our ability to deliver important services. For example:
- The purchase of one Grillin' and Chillin' ticket can cover the cost of one therapy doll or two self-esteem board games used in children’s play therapy sessions.
- The purchase of two Grillin' and Chillin' tickets can cover the cost of First Aid and CPR training for a child care provider. More than 70% of area children spend some time each week being cared for by someone other than their working parents, and they deserve the safest possible environment.
- The purchase of three Grillin' and Chillin' tickets can cover the cost of one child’s mental health session. More than 400 children receive mental health services each year at ChildSavers.
- The purchase of four Grillin' and Chillin' tickets can cover the cost of a crib for an unregulated home-based child care facility and prevent an infant from sleeping in an unsafe environment.

Tuskegee Airmen Motorcycle Club of Virginia
3rd Annual Ride for ChildSavers
May 31, 2008
 To the delight of spectators, 350 motorcycles from almost 30 motorcycle clubs rolled through Hillside, Gilpin, Whitcomb, and Mosby Courts, ending at Chimborazo Park in Church Hill. Post-ride festivities featured keynote speakers Major Norris Evans, Chief of Staff of the Richmond Police Department, and Lieutenant Otis Hooper, a member of Tuskegee Airmen Incorporated. The Soldiers on a Mission Step Team of Bethesda Baptist Church also entertained the crowd.
The Mission of the Tuskegee Airmen Motorcycle Club of Virginia is to assist in maintaining the Legacy of the original Tuskegee Airmen of World War II. They ride their motorcycles in remembrance of and out of respect for the Tuskegee Airmen who fought and endured, so that people today may have the opportunity to not only dream, but to become everything today that they were told would not be possible. We shall work together to make a difference.
A special “thanks” to the clubs that came together as one to help bring “Hope and Healing” to youth:
