On Saturday, October 10th, Riverside East Rotary hosted a rest stop at the Riverside Citrus Classic Bike Ride. Our stop was set up in front of Toyota of Riverside, where members and Interact students from Riverside STEM Academy handed out oranges, bananas, snacks and drinks to riders as they came through.

The Citrus Classic is put on each year by the Riverside Educational Enrichment Foundation (REEF) and raises money for education programs for Riverside Unified students. This year’s ride started at the Riverside Plaza and had routes of 100, 50, 30 and 7 miles. Riverside East Rotary was also a sponsor of this year’s ride.

Thank you to everyone who came out to help!
