We need your help!
This Tuesday and Thursday, August 12th and 14th are when we need volunteers to help unbox and assemble the last 130 bikes for Fayetteville Schools.  We will be on the north side of Fayetteville High School at the western corner of the building where the Agriculture garage bays are located.  We will be working from 3 to 8pm both nights.  Please come out and support bikes in schools!
