Support veterans at Kick Stands Up motorcycle run and car show

The Island Now

On Sunday, July 14, thousands are expected to gather in Holbrook to support veterans with the seventh annual Kick Stands Up motorcycle poker run and car show.

The event will have bikes and custom cars on display for those in attendance to check out, along with live music, food and drinks, vendors and raffle prizes. Admission is free for those interested in attending, but those who want to participate in the motorcycle run or put their car on display must pay to register for the event.

Kick Stands Up will be held at the Four Seasons Sunrooms & Windows located at 5005 Veterans Memorial Hwy., Holbrook. The motorcycle run will begin there, making stops in Oakdale, Ronkonkoma, Shirley and Coram before returning to the starting line. The event starts at 9 a.m. and runs until 3 p.m., with kickstands for the motorcycle run going up at 11 a.m.

All proceeds from the event will benefit the Suffolk County United Veterans project, providing housing and support services for at-risk and homeless veterans. For more information, contact Ruth McDade with Suffolk County United Veterans at 631-471-7242 or rmcdade@mhaw.org.
