Leson Dunkley is a much loved school teacher at the Boulder Community School of Integrated Studies and the parent of one of our rock star alumni, Alys Hansen. Leson was diagnosed with breast cancer last year and she is about to undergo her third round of chemotherapy and is in need of financial assistance.

On May 9th, 2009, an amazing fundraiser called “Ring Your Bike Bell For Leson” is being held at New Vista High School so that Leson and her four children may remain living in their Boulder home, while Leson undergoes treatment.

In conjunction with the fundraiser, participants are attempting to break the Guinness World Record for Largest Bicycle Bell Ensemble – the most people ringing their bike bells at once to a recognizable song for at least five minutes. On Saturday, people will be gathering in front of New vista High school for the event between 3-3:45 PM.

Leson’s children have been and continue to be very involved with the Cottonwood Institute and the Community Adventure Program at New Vista High School. Our hearts go out to her and we hope the Bike Bell Fundraiser is a huge success!
