FABS Helps Camp Boggy Creek

Picture
With the help of the Florida Bicycle Association and The Bicycle Doctor of Bunnell, we were able to donate these 6 Trek bikes to Camp Boggy Creek. This camp is for children with serious illnesses and their families to reach beyond their illness ...and discover joy, confidence and a new world of possibilities and is always free of charge. They were extremely gracious and very happy to receive the bikes to be used in the camp and then gave us a terrific tour of their facility. It is just amazing what they do there!  Go to www.boggycreek.org and see how you can help them too.
