OKC Thunder Provides 125 Bicycles to Area Kids

The Oklahoman has a nice story about the bicycle giveaway provided by the Thunder on Christmas night:

On a Christmas night most folks left the arena buzzing about the Thunder’s 114-106 victory over the Nuggets and Kevin Durant’s 44 points, there were more than a hundred kids from the Oklahoma City Boys and Girls Club who walked out of the building with bigger memories. Lasting memories. Lifelong memories.

They received tickets as part of the Thunder’s “Tickets for Kids” program, and they thought that was their big present.

They didn’t know about the bikes.

The bicycles were provided by The OKC Thunder and had been assembled last week by volunteers from area bicycle organizations including the Oklahoma Bicycle Society.
