On behalf of Loveland Safe Ride, we would like to extend our sincere gratitude to the entire Chief Joseph Days Rodeo team and the Wallowa County community, for hosting such an incredible Safe Ride Benefit Dinner & Auction on March 14. The evening was truly outstanding, and we are deeply thankful for the time, effort, and generosity that went into organizing such a meaningful fundraiser.

From the wonderful dinner by Z’s BBQ and welcoming atmosphere to the exciting live and dessert auctions, the event was a tremendous success. Your commitment to supporting safe rides home for members of our community and surrounding areas is something we truly appreciate. Because of your support and the generosity of everyone involved, Loveland Safe Ride can continue helping ensure people get home safely during community events and celebrations.

We are incredibly grateful for your partnership and for the opportunity to work together in support of this important mission. Events like this demonstrate the strength and heart of our community, and we feel honored to be part of it. Most importantly, the event brought our community together in support of a shared mission—keeping our friends, neighbors, and visitors safe.

Thank you again for such an amazing evening and for all that you do to support Loveland Safe Ride. We are truly thankful for your partnership and support. It is an honor to work alongside an organization so dedicated to giving back to the community. We are already looking forward to our next fundraiser together.

With sincere appreciation and gratitude,

Loveland Safe Ride Team.
