Tucson Elks Lodge 385, ER Wayne Burns and 3rd Year Trustee, Jesse Lugo, Principal, Kira Rendon and her children loading 25 Christmas bicycles that were donated to Ochoa Elementary School in South Tucson, AZ. This year’s 13th Annual Elks Lodge 385 Bike In A Box event bicycle delivery was prolonged due to logistics issues that prohibited our event to occur. Instead, we had churches, schools, nonprofit organizations, and youth support agencies either pickup the bicycles or we scheduled to deliver them as we received our 500 purchased bicycles from our vendor.
