The annual
Stuff the Bus donation drive, in support of School District 51 families in need, will start on Tuesday in Clock Court at Mesa Mall.
According to a recent District 51 newsletter, finding the money to buy school supplies is a struggle for many families and this annual fundraiser helps. School supplies are collected and delivered to each school, where office staff can distribute them to those in need.
To participate in the drive, drop off new school supplies in the white school bus that will be parked inside Mesa Mall.
âYour generosity and kindness will be greatly appreciated,â the newsletter said.
The bike ride my oldest and I took last weekend for Motherâs Day was the eight-mile round-trip section of the Riverfront Trail from Fruita to Loma.
It was the second time Iâd ridden that section of the trail, his first. We had to pedal into some fairly strong winds heading west toward Loma, but knowing weâd have the breeze as a tail wind kept us pushing hard, up the final hill near the Kokopelli Trailhead.
But the spring weather did what spring weather does â the wind switched direction on us â and we had to pedal into the wind on the return trip, too. Whatâs up with that? In spite of the wind changing its mind, we agreed it was a âsplendifferousâ day.
