Honoring Jerry’s Continued Commitment
As Nicole steps in, we heartily thank Jerry White for his six years of dedicated service as Advocacy Committee Chair. In addition to Jerry’s committee chair role, he was integral in securing Bike COS status as an independent 501(c)(3) organization, a milestone that has been foundational to our success. While he is stepping down from the committee chair role, we are grateful that Jerry will continue to remain deeply involved with Bike Colorado Springs as a Board Member and Treasurer.
