On
Wednesday afternoon, the crew at Graue Chevrolet in Lincoln turned
over 12 refurbished bicycles to the Lincoln D.A.R.E. program. The

checked over and necessary repairs made by the technicians at Graue.
Officer Christi Fruge of the Lincoln D.A.R.E. will work with local
school teachers and officials to determine who in the community
could benefit from a new bicycle.
