Motorcycle group raises money for veterans’ kids

JACKSON, Tenn. — Christmas may be only less than five months away, but one group is already thinking ahead, especially for local kids and their wish lists.

The 18-4 Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association got together Saturday for their first ever ride at Bumpus-Harley Davidson in North Jackson.

The group hopes to collect as much money as possible to buy toys for 30 local veterans’ kids to make sure they each have a toy under the tree Christmas morning.
