HAWORTH, N.J.—The Andiamo Motorcycle Charity Run will host its 20th run on Sunday, Sept. 8 at 10:20 a.m., bringing together nearly 1,000 riders and thousands of participants in one of New Jersey’s largest fundraisers on wheels.
Led by a motorcycle police brigade, with representatives from police departments from all over New Jersey and New York, the ride departs from Andiamo Restaurant in Haworth and follows a 50-60 mile course through northeast New Jersey and southeast New York. When the ride wraps up, Andiamo Restaurant hosts a block party celebration with food and entertainment.
Proceeds will support the Englewood Health Foundation, Haworth Volunteer Ambulance, Special Olympics, Haworth Police Auxiliary, Andiamo Scholarship to St. Therese School, and other local charities.
Don Dickstein, owner of Andiamo Restaurant, initially launched the run in 1999 to raise funds for the Cresskill Police Department, and has since expanded the event in support of additional charity beneficiaries.
The event will be held rain or shine at Andiamo Restaurant, 23 Hardenburgh Ave., Haworth.
