Amanda Williams is writing a great column about the Chugach National Forest. You should read it! Here is a link. https://www.thecordovatimes.com/2021/04/11/chugach-corner-an-adventure-on-the-cordova-ranger-district/

Cordova Gear is proud to announce a new program to donate used bicycles throughout the community of Cordova, Alaska.  In partnership with the Cordova Police Department, we will be finding new homes for abandoned bikes. Throughout the year the police department is tasked with collecting and storing abandoned property until it can be claimed or auctioned. These items include bicycles, many of which are in need of refurbishing to be safe and functional on the road.  Police Chief Nate Taylor graciously agreed to assist in helping Cordova Gear put this program into action.

Through the bicycle sales and maintenance department of our retail shop, our mechanics will be selecting abandoned bikes with the potential for more life ahead of them. These bikes will be cleaned, repaired, refurbished, and put back into the community for those who are in need of them. This will be an ongoing community service project. We are excited and grateful for the opportunity to use our time and resources to help give back to our generous and supportive community. Stay tuned for more details on how new homes will be selected for each bike!
