Press Release
The Castle Country Fuller Center again played host to 35 Bike Adventure Group bicyclists as they traveled across the country doing service work in the communities they stayed in. This year they were Price June 4-6. There were be two projects that the Adventure group completed.
One of those was a home in Wellington in which they did deck repairs and other repairs to the exterior of the home. They spent all day Wednesday working on the project with input from the homeowner.
The other project was in Price. That project included scraping and repainting the entire home and adding siding boards to enclose a small carport. Additional repairs were made to seal cracks and improve the exterior of the home with the help of the homeowner.
Pinnacle Academy housed the riders during their stay and the Fuller Center provided lunches and dinners for the group. Price City Mayor Mike Kourianos welcomed the group at the Tuesday night dinner and the band Desert Sage was the entertainment for the evening.
