Coquitlam RCMP is excited to host the Cops for Cancer 'Spin-A-Thon' on March 8, 2025, to raise funds for childhood cancer research and Camp Goodtimes.
Coquitlam RCMP’s Corporal Neil Roemer, Constable Daniel Bouya, and retired Mountie Tess Landry will be hopping onto stationary bikes and spinning their wheels for 9 hours in support of this great cause. Our riders are raising funds for childhood cancer research and Camp Goodtimes, a medically-supervised recreational program for children and teens experiencing cancer, as well as their families.
Even one child suffering from cancer is too many, said Cops for Cancer rider, Corporal Neil Roemer. We’re training hard and fundraising even harder to support childhood cancer research and to send kids who are fighting cancer to Camp Goodtimes. Our eight days of riding will be worth it when it helps raise funds for much needed medical research, and gives children battling this horrible disease a chance to enjoy their time at camp.
