Steady she goes!
Amy Bishop of Brussels shows her stuff at the bike rodeo held at the BMG arena Saturday
morning. The children had to drive through a series of courses in order to win points. Thanks
to the weather, the number of children who showed up, and plenty of help from the parents,
the rodeo, which was sponsored by the Optimists and The Ark, was a success. Optimist Brian
Deitner keeps an eye on Amy's progress.
