Adopt-A-Family Bikes (AAFB) program is looking for volunteers to help clean and refurbish used bicycles and give them away to families for Christmas. This is a GREAT program…as scouts, we should help this program. All Boy Scouts and ADULT parents are welcome to help…
We can:
- Get experience working on bikes and fulfill Cycling MB requirements # 2, 3, and 5.
- Make a difference in the life of another child by providing a cleaned, repaired bicycle as a gift. We hope to donate about 300 bikes this year! Think of all the people that would help!
- Obtain service hours by providing this meaningful community service. – I know for a fact that many of you scouts need service hours.. this is a great opportunity…
If you have time this Saturday and Sunday, please consider coming by and help out this worthy cause… If you have your own tools (like screw drivers, wrenches, etc.) – please bring them… This is a GREAT way to give back to our community.
For more information on the Adopt A Family Bikes (AAFB) program and what is done with the hundreds of bikes each year, go to http://www.adoptafamilybikes.org/. I hope we can get many Scouts to help out, even for 2-3 hours.
