The prize for the coolest rig went to a massive quadricycle float, the “U.S.S. Wake-Up Call,” built and skippered by Hearthunder Art Collective.
“It was pretty cool to see people as young as about 3, and north of 70, and everywhere in- between just grinning and enjoying the trails. There’s a little something for everyone, and we got lucky with the weather,” said Angus Chaney, executive director of HPC.
At the event, the Homeless Prevention Center also unveiled its new 25th anniversary logo designed by students in Stafford Technical Center’s Digital Arts class.
