The local Elks Lodge organization held their annual "Say No to Drugs" bike race. The kids all wanted to participate, so after many phone calls, and driving all around town, we finally rounded up enough bikes for everyone (except for Kristen and Kylie, they rode in the "support" truck).
The course was a 6 mile ride from the ferry terminal, along the inlet, up to lake Chilkoot. Everyone finished the race, even Katelyn. Those little legs of hers had to peddle really hard on that small bike, but she was determined. And although her and I were the last ones who rode across the finish line--we still did it. Everyone was there at the end cheering her on. Her face just beamed!
The race was followed by a yummy barbecue at the lake campground, and then they had a drawing. I guess it was our lucky day, because we walked away with an ipod and a Nintendo DSi. Not bad!
