CUMMING — The 32nd Annual Atlanta Ride for Kids was held Sunday at the Cumming Fairgrounds.

The escorted motorcycle ride for children battling brain cancer and their families was followed by a community day organized by the Cumming-Forsyth County Chamber of Commerce and the Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta.

The ride featured 311 motorcycles and 21 stars, or children battling brain cancer or survivors who were diagnosed as children.

It raised $120,568, though donations will be accepted through July 6.

The family fun event featured live music and entertainment, including a motorcycle stunt show and precision demonstration, and drew more than 650 people to the fairgrounds.
