It’s All About Community.

The Spokesgroup has helped thousands of citizens make a connection with thousands of children and their families.

It IS all about community…about giving something back. We invite you to participate.

Ultimately, it is YOU who receives the greatest reward.

Warm Greetings,

2020 has been an unusual year to say the least. So it has as well for The Spokes Group. Bike costs and freight are up. Demand for bikes is huge (check the depleted bike section at your nearest Walmart) and many more families are hurting this holiday.

We will not be able to spin the wheel at the Christmas Bureau this year for safety reasons, but we have a new Partner, The Hickory NC Fire Department, that will receive 650 bikes.

But some things don’t change. WE HAVE A GREAT GROUP OF SUPPORTERS!

The spirit of Christmas overcomes viruses and politics.

Thank you in advance.
