Cochise County Sheriff’s Charity Ride and fundraisers: ride set for Nov. 1, carne asada sale Saturday

Sheriff Mark Daniels said the Cochise County Sheriff’s Charity Ride is scheduled for Nov. 1 and that recipients for this year’s awards have already been selected. Registration information will be posted on the sheriff’s office Facebook page and on the county site, Daniels said.

Daniels described a carne asada sale in Douglas at Raul Castro Park on Tenth Street starting at 11:30 a.m. as one of several fundraisers organized by Sergeant Davidson to support the charity ride; plates are $12 and include carne asada, macaroni salad and beans, he said. Daniels credited volunteers and sponsors for ticket sales and raffle support.

A Can-Am vehicle is being raffled to raise funds; Daniels said proceeds return to community recipients. He gave an on-air example of prior auction activity — he said he sold himself as part of a U of A dinner auction for $6,000 — and encouraged public participation. For registration, Daniels directed listeners to the county sheriff website (cochise.az.gov/sheriff) and the sheriff’s Facebook page for updates.
