Downtown Boise Ice Rink
Excitement is building in Boise as the Downtown Boise Foundation introduces "Glide on Grove," an enchanting winter skating rink that winds around the iconic City of Boise Holiday Tree, nestled within the picturesque Grove Plaza. The rink will welcome visitors from Thanksgiving weekend 2023, providing a source of winter wonderment until the final Sunday in January 2024. Crafted from robust, low-maintenance synthetic materials, this icy oasis promises a decade of frosty enjoyment. Boise Mayor Lauren McLean eagerly endorses the project, emphasizing its ability to enhance the city's winter atmosphere and support local businesses. DowntownBoise.org
Dreams Come True for Kids
December 16th marks an extraordinary day for over 500 children in need who will receive their very own, personalized "dream bicycles." In addition to these cherished gifts, they will be provided with snug winter attire, steaming hot beverages, hearty meals, secure bike locks, and protective helmets. This event is made possible through the tireless efforts of the Boise Bicycle Project, and your support is needed to make it a resounding success. There are five essential ways you can join in the magic: donate gently used children's bicycles during the Holiday Kids Bike Drive, become a member of BBP, or offer a financial contribution to back this heartwarming initiative. Alternatively, you can "adopt" one of the dream bikes, lend your time and skills as a volunteer before or during the event, or help spread the word throughout the community. Let's ensure that this day is filled with joy for these deserving children! BoiseBicycleProject.org
