Molly-Dharma Run to Benefit IMHS
7th Annual June Motorcycle Ride Helps Homeless Animals
Engines will roar for animals on Sunday, June 9th, when the annual Molly-Dharma Run takes off to raise funds for Intermountain Humane Society (IMHS). The Molly-Dharma Run was established by Kirk Zimmerman and Ken Mann after Kirk met a dog named Molly-Dharma who had been adopted and returned to a shelter four times, until she entered his heart and household for good.
“The Molly-Dharma Run is a motorcycle ride of love for homeless dogs and cats,” said Marta Anderson, IMHS Shelter Director, “We try to go the extra mile for animals who have special needs, and we’re thrilled that these bikers will be giving us the fuel to save more in the year ahead.”
Registration fees benefit Intermountain Humane Society’s work for animals. The first 300 riders to register will receive a ride pin, and the first 200 to arrive on event day will receive a free breakfast burrito or bagel. Registration on the June 9th event day is $20 for a single rider, $25 for two-up, but there is a $5 discount for pre-registrants thru June 3rd.

The fun starts at The Platte in Littleton and after visiting IMHS will end at the T-Bird Road House in Wheat Ridge, where local band Kicked ToThe Curb will play.
Intermountain Humane Society is a private, non-profit organization that receives no government funding and relies solely on donations and community support to serve its mission. IMHS is located at 67318 US Hwy 285 S in Pine Junction.
