Our Sponsors
The people who help us Roll On.
Organizing an event like Roll On Columbus is a big undertaking. There are always lots of people and organizations behind the scenes who make an event like this possible. We owe a lot to our sponsors and commercial partners.
First, we must thank the Children’s Hospital Foundation whose fine staff welcomed us with open arms and generous advice. They have a lot of experience in what will work and what won’t, and they showed a lot of faith in our plan from the start.
Rhett Ricart, whose family is a leading and legendary Central Ohio automobile dealer, helped us acquire PromoWest’s Lifestyles Pavilion as our venue for Roll On Columbus 2010. His company is also contributing invaluable promotional support to our effort. If there is one thing these guys know how to do, it is how to advertise, how to get attention, and how to promote.
Next Ken Neverman of Neverman Construction and Mark Beckner of Beckner’s House of Rides have made the OMC custom bobber possible. It has become our chief fund-raising and promotional vehicle. The custom bobber project also has been supported by J&P Cycles, America’s leading mail-order supplier of motorcycle parts and accessories. Miracle Custom Coatings, Lou’s Body Shop, and Spitfire Customs also have come aboard as sponsors.
We also must thank the good people at AdvanStar, the company that produces the Cycle World International Motorcycle Shows, who have provided generous support for OMC at their show at Cleveland’s IX Center. And some of our directors have brought onboard the support of their own companies. These include Pusarti, Nichols & Co., certified public accountants; and Lane, Alton & Horst LLC, attorneys at law; and Ohio Riders, the largest internet motorcycle club in Ohio.

Our goal is to give every penny that comes out of the pocket of every participant at Roll On Columbus to Nationwide Children’s Hospital. In other words, we want every cent of our administrative and promotional costs to be covered by sponsorship and raffle fund raising when the curtain rises at our big event next May. This requires a lot of outside help, and we are grateful.
Sponsorship opportunities are still available. For information, contact Ben Dils.
As motorcyclists, we can change children’s lives, one ride at a time. By joining us and supporting our activities, we know you will meet some great people. Families like the Millers. Karen and Scott Miller, along with their daugher Erica are enthusitic motorcyclist. They also have first hand experience with Nationwide Children's Hospital.
