The "Chopper" Raises Awareness and Funds for Revolution Kids
Enner shows off the Chopper as it is being worked on!
The Chopper was auctioned off at the April 9th Rock & Roast, annual fundraiser, for the Box of Rain Foundation. The third item up on the auctioning block it created quite a buzz as it was ridden in by RK participant. Bidding began at $50 and did not stop until the new owner had spent $375 for the "priceless" piece of work. But that was not the end of the bidding, the new owner quickly put it back on the auction block so a second owner could be chosen. Again, the bike brought in $375. Just do the math $750 going straight back to the Revolution Kids Program! The current owner, as gracious as the first, has agreed to allow the program to keep it on loan, so the bike can be displayed as part of the Revolution Kids first bike sale event, being held as part of the Quiet Waters Park Earth Day Celebration.
