OGT New England Gives Twenty Bikes to Waterbury Youth Services

On Monday Nov. 24, Orphan Grain Train New England gave about 20 bikes, trikes and helmets to Waterbury Youth Services for distribution to children over the holidays. Great gift for kids. Attached is a picture of volunteers loading the bicycles in a truck to transport them to Waterbury, Connecticut. Thanks to our volunteer, Tom Calvello who arranged for this and to our volunteers who got the bikes into running condition. It’s a lot of work but they enjoy knowing it will brighten someone’s future. Happy Thanksgiving and Blessings.
