Today was the annual Battler Bike-a-Thon. It's an even sponsored by a local group called Gettysburg In Action to raise money for their group (they organized various youth activities in the community and help with other service projects and scholarships). Half of the money raised was also designated for a community bandshell project. Harrison has looked forward to participating every year as he watched his sister because the reward for their hard work raising money and pedaling for 30 minutes is a ride on a firetruck. Well, this year Harrison was a bit nervous that it really was his turn to participate. He hasn't completely mastered the skill of riding his bike but he gave it his all and managed to ride the entire time and enthusiastically said it was fun when he finished!!! Hooray! And, he got his coveted fire truck ride! Great job Reagan and Harrison!
