Roy Taghon Memorial Snomobile Ride
The Leelanau Enterprise reports that snowmobilers from all over the state are expected to participate Saturday (Feb 2) in the “Roy Taghon Memorial Ride” from the Empire Airport (meet at noon) and ride to Maple City for a 2 PM buffet at Benchwarmer’s Sports Bar and Grille and a dedication ceremony.
There will be a $10 charge per person for lunch that will go toward a music scholarship fund being established in his name. Roy passed on January 20, 2008 and you can read Roy’s obituary in the Leelanau Enterprise and also read and share your memories in an online guestbook.
Thank you for honoring Roy Taghon through your participation in the memorial ride.He is a greatly missed family member at the Empire EZ Mart. Because Roy was passionate about customer service, we want to extend the hospitality to you that would have made Roy proud. We invite you to come inside the store for coffee and cookies, compliments of
EZ Mart and Blarney Castle Oil and Propane.
Thanks to everyone who showed up today. We had at least 100+ sleds in memory of Roy.
