As I mention on my HELMETS FOR HAILEY: The Arch Rivals Comedy Showcase is holding a benefit for Helmets for Hailey, a non-profit foundation named for Hailey Beth Kramer (no relation), a St. Louis girl who suffered head injuries as the result of a bicycle accident last June. The event will be at the Comedy Forum, located at 4141 N. Cloverleaf Drive (off the I-70 South Service Road just west of Interstate 70 and Cave Springs Boulevard in St. Peters)
All donations made to Helmets For Hailey Inc. will go to assist Hailey with medical expenses and equipment needed, as well as educational materials and helmets for those in need. The cost is $10 per person (ages 21 and older). Reservations can be made online at www.comedyforum.com.
BICYCLEWORKS: BicycleWORKS would like to get the word out that it needs more volunteers. BicycleWORKS was founded in 1988 by a Shaw neighborhood resident who saw the need to provide St. Louis area youth with the opportunity to develop a skill and to challenge them to test the limits of their abilities.
BicycleWORKS is asking for a Saturday a month at its shop at 4100 Shenandonah in St. Louis because the kids it serves (mostly 5-15 yr olds) need adult attention more than anything else. Most of the repairs needed are simple things such as fixing a flat tire. The shop is open from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday. The phone number is (314) 664-0828.
Of course, BicycleWORKS is always looking for old bicycles. It accepts donations of bikes, parts, and accessories and can give a tax receipt for donations. It prefers a $10 donation with each bike to replace tires, tubes and other parts on bike it sells.
