A benefit ride will be held in memory of Bryce Gerlach on November 9. Bryce was a student at Corydon Central High School who was tragically shot and killed at a Harvest Homecoming festival on October 12 while shielding his friends. Two suspects have since been detained with one of the suspects having a "direct connection" to the case according to New Albany Police Chief Todd Bailey. However, the names of the suspects have yet to be released.

Bryce's benefit ride will go from 12 p.m. to approximately 4:30 p.m., and it will begin and end at the American Legion located at 105 W Hugh Veteran Dr, Salem. Registration for the ride begins at 11 a.m. In addition to the benefit ride, there will also be a soup pitch-in and a 50/50 raffle to participate in, and attendees are encouraged to wear orange to raise awareness of gun violence.

The ride cost is $20 per driver, and an additional $5 per passenger. All proceeds go toward the Bryce Gerlach Memorial Scholarship fund.

Join the community in supporting the friends and family of Bryce, and help raise awareness of this senseless violence that has wounded the Corydon community and Southern Indiana as a whole.
