Being part of the Gran Fondo organizing committee has been very rewarding for me.

Personally I have not cycled a lot but my sister a real Kootenay gal has taken me to places and views I would not have seen.

Being with Sunrise Rotary for 7 years now when this project started I joined the Fondo committee.

My role with the help of others has been arranging the items we get in the swag bags, working the bike check and also organizing our Volunteer Appreciation night and collecting our volunteer prizes with help from other members.

It is so great to see this non-profit event do so well with rave reviews from our riders!  And to top it off it allows us to raise funds to support projects in our community!
