Our annual Escorted Motorcycle Ride to raise money for Project Lifesaver is October 11, 2026. Click to download the flyer and share with your riding buddies.
This rain-or-shine ride begins and ends at Newport News Park, Shelters 19 and 20. The park is located at 13560 Jefferson Ave., Newport News, VA 23603.
The ride fee is $20.00 per bike and an additional $5 per passenger. Cash, Check, or Money Order Only!
You can sign up ahead of time. Click to download the registration form, complete and mail with your check or money order or you can register the morning of the ride beginning at 9 a.m.
Following a safety briefing, we’ll leave at approximately 11 a.m. The ride usually lasts about an hour. Everyone returns to the park for the hot dog social, raffles, auctions, music, and more.
It’s a great event and we appreciate all the riders who support us each year. There are 60 adults and children enrolled in the Project Lifesaver program. Sheriff Gabe Morgan says it’s important that families who need this coverage can get it without worrying about how to pay for it, so NNSO clients don’t pay anything. All money from this ride goes directly to our program.
If you have questions, contact ride coordinator Capt. K. Gross.
SHRED EVENT - SATURDAY, OCTOBER 17, 2026
Gather your personal papers for the Newport News Sheriff’s Office Shred Event on Saturday, October 17, 2026, from 10 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at Piggly Wiggly, 3101 Jefferson Avenue, Newport News, VA 23607.
Sheriff Gabe Morgan is committed to protecting citizens from identity theft by offering free on-site shredding of personal papers each year.
Important info:
- Documents should be in paper bags, easy-open containers, or boxes. No plastic bags!
- Do not tape boxes shut.
- Stay in your vehicle at all times.
- This is not for businesses.
Destroying papers with personal information is a way to keep a thief from using your good name for bad things like opening credit card accounts, trying to claim your tax refund, and committing utilities, rental or bank fraud, to name a few examples.
