In order to offer a contact-less pickup experience, cones were set up to direct automobiles to their peaches. Buyers moved from station to station efficiently and effortlessly and left with the finest peaches Colorado has to offer.

Ready,  Set, Crawford!
Led by Rotarian extraordinaire, Roxy Hahn, the plan was to fill 75 backpacks for second graders at Aurora's Crawford Elementary school. We learned about the significant need from President-Elect Tom Gross, whose daughter is a teacher there, and chose the school because their student population represents 19 different countries, of which 70% are English Language Learner (ELL) students.
