Donate your unused bicycles

The company is rounding up unused bikes to take to Norton to restock their inventory to refurbish or sell for scrap iron to fund the program.

Bikes can be taken to Central Plains Equipment, 280 N. Sunflower Dr. in Holyoke. The deadline is Friday, Dec. 13. For more info, call 970-854-4535.
