Benefit For Angie By: Rose and Lloyd Benefit Ride for Angie Sams was scheduled at Springer’s in Greensboro on June 25th to help with some major medical bills. Then, June 18th, Angie and husband Larry Sam’s was involved in a near fatal motorcycle accident. Larry suffered a broken ankle, many burns and other injuries. Angie was in ICU at Chapel Hill with 75% of her body covered in burns, she also had developed pneumonia. This intensified the need for a benefit even more important. The ride began at Springers at 405 Rocky Knoll Rd in Greensboro. Randy Craven led the ride, to Smokies in Burlington, next was Lucky’s Saloon in Burlington. Then to Liberty Tavern and a stop in at Whitt’s store on HWY 62 in Pleasant Garden. It was a beauti-
ful ride through the country ending at Springers for food, music, raffles and auction. Jeff had been smoking pork shoulders and there was all kinds of sides provided by the American Military Family. Raffle tickets for a gun had been sold, and Ray Smith was the winner. The 50/50 was won by Carol Baker and she gave it all back. While enjoying the food, music and raffles you could also browse for some beautiful jewelry from Lucky 13 Jewelry, or sunglasses from FME Polarized Glasses & Extreme Sports. The day was beautiful and I cannot say enough about the team at Springer, from Jeff Schmid the owner, the bartenders Heather and Ros, and everyone that brough food or donations for a family in need. Angie and Larry Sams have a lot of healing to do, but their biker family is always there to help.
