Bike Rack Times Four...

We had a young man at Church who eMailed Claude looking for a possibility in Sadieville for an Eagle Scout Project. Claude suggested the fact that Sadieville could use some bike racks.

Jared Parker proposed the idea to the Scout Council and it was accepted. He petitioned his family for funding to purchase the needed supplies. He gathered the supplies and the requested the help of Jim Parker (no relation to Jared) in our ward (congregation) at Church. We provided pictures of the bike rack we saw in Michigan as the model for how to build the bike racks. Jim is a master at woodworking and he created the plan to build the racks. The Scout Troop at Church provided the man power.

Saturday the bike racks were delivered to Sadieville. There are four of them and they were placed one by City Hall, one in Warring Park and two at the park on Hwy. 32.

This is Jared with the bike rack in Warring Park.

This is Jared and Claude, the Mayor, shaking hands at the placement by the park on Hwy 32.

And this is Jared and his father, Trent. One happy young man and his dad.

Now Jared has to go through all the paperwork process to complete and receive his Eagle rank. And...Sadieville has new bike racks just in time for the 1st Annual Sadie"Hill" Bike Tour and our Annual Chili Cook-off this Saturday. Thanks Jared!!
