Abraflex is back on board as a participating member of the Gran Fondo Lake Huron for 2019.
At a special ceremony on January 18th, the owner/treasurer of the Paisley-based company Desiree Norweigian, presented a cheque for $500 to the chair of the Saugeen Memorial Hospital Foundation Jim Barbour.
Abraflex will host the Paisley rest stop for cyclists on the planned 70K, 110K and 160K routes.
For many cyclists, the Paisley stop became known as the “butter tart stop” where the fresh pastries were handed out.
Norwegian pointed out that living and working in the region means the Southampton Hospital is a core for the community and the Foundation is an essential partner not only for the Paisley company but for the community at large.
Abraflex manufactures Personal Protective Equipment to the nuclear power generation industry.
The 2019 Gran Fondo is scheduled for August 18th and is a family-friendly biking event and not a race.
