STRATFORD ---Sikorsky Aircraft Corp. will hold its 10th annual Motorcycle Ride and Classic Car show to benefit the Wounded Warrior Project, United Way and Community Health Charities, Sept. 13, at the company’s campus, 6900 Main St.
The Wounded Warrior Project began more than a decade ago, starting as a program to provide comfort to wounded military service members and growing into a rehabilitative effort to help wounded service members recover and transition back to civilian life, according to a release.
The scenic, two-hour ride will wind through seven area towns, covering more than 60 miles, the release said.

Registration begins at 8 a.m. in the Sikorsky parking lot, and the ride kicks off at 9 a.m.
The cost is $20 per rider and $5 for each passenger. Breakfast is included for both the rider and passengers, the release said.
To display a classic car, truck or motorcycle, registration begins at 9 a.m. The car show runs from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. The cost to enter a car is $20.
General admission is $5 and children younger than 12 are admitted at no charge.
After the ride, there will be food vendors and live music, the release said. A portion of the proceeds from food sales will also go to the various charities Sikorsky supports.
