Dear CVC Members, It is time! We need everyone to get on the ball and register for our annual Picnic & Benefit ride. This is what CVC is all about. Promoting cycling to the youth. And OUR Picnic and benefit ride is where we get our charitable funding! Come be a part of this great event! Many of you have not seen this event in action, but it is filled with fun! We will have a silent auction, a food truck, a beer garden, and more, all for YOU! But time is of the essence and we need to start purchasing, so will need a full count. I want you to check out this picture. This is a lovely high school student. She lost everything. Her home, her school and her beloved bike along with all of her belongings. With prior funds, we were able to purchase a bike for her when her family could not. She cried with excitement. Literally tears running down her eyes. It was such a special moment. She asked, "Why would strangers help me out to get a bike?" Because we are a cycling community and a compassionate club. Funds for this were made through CVC member EVENTS. These young students have been completely qualified and vetted by the schools. Verification of losses and needs are there. So let's go help some more children enjoy cycling. https://www.bikereg.com/picnicbenefitride Sincerely, Sheri Leiken CVC President
