It’s part of the Scott Campbell Christmas Promise, Scott Campbell was a longtime employee of Waste Connections. He started the Bike Build 15 years ago with 100 bicycles, 20 volunteers, and a wish that every child in need who asks Santa for a bike on Christmas morning shall receive one.
It has grown so much in the 15 years that we, Waste Connections, now make it an annual event to bring everyone together to build the bikes and give back to the community. Scott passed away seven years ago, and it was his Christmas Promise to move the community forward, always thinking of the community, so we all promised, no matter what, we’d always have a Bike Build. Seven years since he’s been gone, and here we are, still doing it
This year’s supporters include Ed & Dollie Lynch Fund, Fred Meyer, Riverview Bank, Martin Bower Company, J. Scott Campbell Foundation, Waste Connections Employees.
