SACO – Local businesses and individuals have contributed $3,000 to a fundraising campaign designed to purchase bicycles for Saco Parks and Recreation kids to use on the Eastern Trail. Last week, 15 new bikes were presented to the children, and the group Saco Bikes for Kids is hoping another $2,000 will be donated so 10 more bikes can be purchased, completing the original goal of buying 25 bikes.  

“We appreciate the generosity of Saco businesses and residents that enabled us to buy (the) bikes. This really shows how much this community cares about the next generation,” said Justin Chenette, one of the organizers of Saco Bikes For Kids and newly elected state representative for House District 134.
