Notes from the October Board Meeting


  • The 2009 / 2010 Administrative Account budget and Charitable Account budget have been approved by the Board.



  • There were 166 bicycles repaired for Christmas Anonymous this year. There are still about 20 more in storage. That brings the total up to more than 180 bikes for distribution this year.
