(CLARKSVILLENOW) – American Legion Post 233, Infidels MC, Keystone Realty – Lisa & Rick Nielsen, Legacy Vets MC, United Heathens MC, Veterans MC, Wheelbilly Motor Family, White Bikers MC and, Wingmen MC recently presented the Clarksville Sunset Rotary with a donation of $4,746 for the “Trykes for Kids” Fundraiser.
This large donation will allow the Sunset Rotary Club to provide therapeutic tricycles to individuals unable to operate a traditional bike. Sunset purchases the TRYKES from Music City Trykes an AMBUCS chapter, whose primary purpose is to aid people with disabilities to attain AmTrykes to gain mobility.
“This is a major focus for the Sunset Rotary Club to provide disabled children in Montgomery County, Clarksville, Fort Campbell and Oak Grove, KY and the donations and support from organizations listed above are greatly appreciated. We still need support from individuals and other organizations to meet the growing need in the community, this has been going on for 2 years and we have given 9 Trykes away and have the last 6 children on the current waiting list able to receive a bike designed for them. This is a long term mission and will need continued support for its success,” Alecia Sparks, President, Sunset Rotary Club said. “Every child deserves a bike!”
Clarksville Sunset Rotary meets on the first and third Tuesday of every month at the Looking Glass Restaurant at 6 p.m.
