Aug 08 Going Green 100 Aid Station Volunteers

 After a year and a half of envisioning a new website for Chaffee County Mentors, we are now UP AND RUNNING!  Thanks a million to Trey Beck for making this possible.  I met Trey exactly a year ago as we were both helping with South Central Racing’s Going Green 100 bicycle ride.  Check out http://southcentralracing.com/century/ to find out more about the ride.  Just a few weekends ago, the Going Green 100 was going on again and Whitney and I had a great time running the aid station.  Angie, Candice, Kirsten, Camille, & Jackie joined us during the day to also support the effort. 

We support the Going Green 100 because South Central Racing supports us.  Specifically, since last summer, SCR helped us get 3 bicycles to a family for Christmas, helped fund our annual group activity at Monarch Mountain, sponsored our annual FYI fundraiser, and organized the fun and inspiring Generational Bike Relay (held this July).  This year’s Generational Relay drew eleven matches who got the unique opportunity to race in a fun and supportive environment.

So, thanks to South Central Racing and thanks to Trey for all your support of Chaffee County Mentors!  We’re really excited about this new blog format of our website that will allow us to keep everyone more informed of our efforts for youth in this community!

Matt & Nish placed 2nd / Dave & Jesse placed 3rd at the 2008 Generational Relay
