New Topics from Board Members Type I want to be sure and get Brady Irwin (Katelyn's dad) and Brett Filomio (PE teacher at Hawks Rise and PE Coordinator) along with maybe Tom Glennon at CHP to be recognized at an upcoming Board meeting. CHP has donated $38,000 to the Foundation to purchase new bikes for our trailers that rotate to our elementary schools to teach bicycle and traffic safety lessons. This is a program that has been in existence for 30 years and is needed now more than ever. Many of our bikes are 20 years old, so this gift is amazing. The next few years they will continue to give a lesser amount to continue to replace and provide maintenance on the bikes. It's an amazing program and such a huge gift from CHP. Will schedule for February 25, 2025.
