We want to thank the Cyclist club volunteers who on December 17th served 36 families with chicken dinner, gifts and new bikes and toys. Overall, some 57 families from the lower Coachella Valley area benefited from hundreds of new toys and 45 new bikes provided through the generous donations of SCPD clubs such as the Hike Club, Ladies 9-Holers, Italian Heritage and many individual contributors.
Volunteers were Bettsie & Les Hewitt, Dave & Sandy Sneddon,Bob Krasny, Ken Battle, Marty Levenstein, John McCarthy & Carole Shawver, and Corinne & Bill Pivar.
Special thanks to Bill and Corinne Pivar for organizing this event!
