Coasters As Elves

Thursday, November 18. 2010

Pictured above are those that donated their time and labor to assemble bikes for the Wichita Dream Center's Christmas For Wichita. From what I hear it was a busy but fun time.

Elves are still needed! There will be one more assembly day so please come out and help if you can. No mechanical skills required.
When: Sunday, December 5th at 1:00pm
Where: Believers Tabernacle Church 2000 S. Hillside (S/E corner of Mt Vernon & Hillside).

Below are some of the bikes that were assembled. Thanks to Ralph for the photos.

Ralph here
I would like to personally THANK every ELF that helped to make this happen. We had a lot of FUN. The feeling you get in your heart after such an event can not be duplicated. It's just wonderful. Everyone worked hard. It was like a well oiled machine. I'm so glad I found the COASTERS. I'm really looking forward to doing this again on December 5.(Sunday) at 1:00 PM. I don't know how many more bicycles they ordered. I do know that there goal is 500 bicycles total. WE CAN DO IT !!
The BIG EVENT will take place on December 18.(Same Address). We can also help to make this happen by helping to setup and with security and whatever we can do to help. It will be a monumental task that should be FUN. I think we will start setting up at about 7:00 am on that Saturday. I have no idea how long it will take. So if you fellow Coasters would like to help. We'll see you there ! It'll be great FUN!
Thanks Again
Barbara,Byron & Ralph

The brothers closed the [...]
