Kudos to Yvonne Campos for organizing this event!! Each fall the Hill Country Bicycle Touring Club sponsors a cycling event in Fredericksburg, called the Fredericksburg Fall Foliage Frolic. A portion of the proceeds of that event goes to providing bicycles to a school promoting perfect attendance as an incentive. Beacon Hill Elementary School was chosen as 75% of their student population is “at risk” and 93% are economically disadvantage. On January 27, HCBTC members, Yvonne, Mando, and Roy, along with Assistant Principal, Ms. Cardona presented the bikes to Josh and Adrianna achieving for the goal during the first semester.
