Trishaw Pilot Training

Become a Buena Vista Trishaw Pilot!

Two upcoming training opportunities are available:
● Thursday, May 7 at 4:30 p.m.
● Friday, May 15 at 12:00 p.m.

Chaffee County Public Health is inviting Buena Vista community members to take part in a unique and meaningful volunteer opportunity this summer by becoming trained Trishaw pilots. The Trishaw program provides free bike rides for older adults, creating opportunities for fresh air, social connection,
and joyful time outdoors. A trishaw is a specially designed, electric-assist pedicab built with accessibility in mind, featuring a no-step entry and a comfortable front seat for passengers. The pilot rides behind, making it easy to monitor riders’ well-being and engage in conversation, while passengers enjoy unobstructed views of the surrounding landscape. Trained volunteers serve as pilots, offering community members a safe, engaging, and
memorable riding experience. With only two training sessions available this year, interested residents are encouraged to sign up to secure their spot as soon as possible.

The trainings will cover safe operation of the Trishaw, rider experience best practices, and program expectations. No prior experience is required, just a willingness to follow safety protocols, engage with others and enjoy time outdoors. The schedule is flexible and if you’re someone who enjoys biking, volunteering, and connecting with others you’re encouraged to participate!

The program has already seen great success in Salida, and CCPH is excited to bring that same momentum to Buena Vista this summer. Making it happen will depend on a dedicated group of consistent volunteers ready to
step in as Trishaw pilots and help bring these rides to life. Help CCPH get this program going and sign up for one of the trainings! To sign up for a training or learn more, please contact Aubrey at 719-429-8823 or email atamietti@chaffeecounty.org.

Grief Cafe


Grief Cafe

The Grief Café is a welcoming, informal gathering for anyone living with grief or loss. It might be connected to the death of person or a pet, but it can also arise from non-death losses such as changes in health, identity, relationships, work, or life circumstances.

At the Grief Café, you can expect a relaxed, compassionate atmosphere where listening is valued as much as speaking. This is not a therapy group or a place to “fix” grief. Participants are invited to share as much or as little as they wish. There is no agenda and no requirement to explain or justify your experience. Conversations unfold organically, guided by curiosity, respect, and care. The Grief Café offers connection, presence, and the quiet relief of not having to carry grief alone.

It will be every 2nd Tuesday. Robin Olson, Deb Abbott from Enhabit and Linda will be co-facilitating

Grief Cafe

Grief Cafe


Grief Cafe

The Grief Café is a welcoming, informal gathering for anyone living with grief or loss. It might be connected to the death of person or a pet, but it can also arise from non-death losses such as changes in health, identity, relationships, work, or life circumstances.

At the Grief Café, you can expect a relaxed, compassionate atmosphere where listening is valued as much as speaking. This is not a therapy group or a place to “fix” grief. Participants are invited to share as much or as little as they wish. There is no agenda and no requirement to explain or justify your experience. Conversations unfold organically, guided by curiosity, respect, and care. The Grief Café offers connection, presence, and the quiet relief of not having to carry grief alone.

It will be every 2nd Tuesday. Robin Olson, Deb Abbott from Enhabit and Linda will be co-facilitating

Virtual Author Talk: Jason Reynolds


Virtual Author Talk: Jason Reynolds

REGISTER HERE

Join us in conversation with bestselling author Jason Reynolds as we discuss his latest work, Coach, the fifth–and last–entry in the highly popular Track series. Following the immersive stories of Ghost, Lu, Patina, and Sunny, it’s finally time for Coach to shine in his own book as we discover: Who was Coach before he became an inspiring leader?

Before Coach was the man who gave caring yet firm-handed guidance to Ghost, Lu, Patina, and Sunny on the Defenders track team, he was little Otie Brody, who was obsessed with Mr. 9.99 (a.k.a. Carl Lewis) and Marty McFly from Back to the Future. Like Mr. 9.99—and his own dad—Otie is a sprinter. Sprint free or die is practically his motto.

Then his dad, who is always away on business trips, comes home with a pair of Jordans. JORDANS. Fine as fine can be. Otie puts them on and feels like he can leap to the moon…maybe even leap like Mr. 9.99 when he won the Olympic gold medal in the long jump. But one morning he wakes up to find his brand-new secret weapon kicks are missing—right off his feet! And Otie just might have a fuzzy memory of his dad easing them off as Otie was sleeping, but that can’t be right, can it?

Unless all the reasons for his dad’s “gone’s” are very different from what he’s been told… Because now, not only are the Jordans missing, but so is his father.
