Renewal Ranch will host its second annual bike ride, Renewal Ride, on Saturday, July 11. First Security Bank is again this year’s Title Sponsor. The event benefits Renewal Ranch and “Restoring Broken Lives Through Christ.” There are three distances — 55 miles, 35 miles and three miles — which start and finish at Renewal Ranch, 75 Lake Drive, Houston (Perry County). The group ride starts at 8 a.m. The Family Fun three-mile course begins at 9 a.m. Riders are encouraged to obtain their own sponsorships to help raise funds and awareness for Renewal Ranch.
