Thanks to donations from Southern Champion Tray, The Salvation Army was able to purchase 113 bikes.

Volunteers from Volkswagen put these bikes together, assembly line style, so they are ready for children Christmas morning.

Bike assembly took place at The Salvation Army Angel Tree warehouse located at 5000 Calhoun Avenue.
