Generous Donation Leads to 5th Trishaw!
Little Man Ice Cream Donates Generous Amount for New Trishaw
Thanks to a tremendous donation from Little Man Ice Cream, CWAL has recently purchased our 5th!! trishaw. We are so thankful for this amazing gift which allows us to continue bringing wind in the hair experiences to those unable to get out on their own!
As we welcome this newest rig to our growing fleet, we bid bittersweet adieu to our first trishaw, fondly named "Freedom Flyer #1". Little Man Ice Cream's generosity helps us to maintain a high level of quality in our trishaws, but we must take a moment to thank Trishaw #1 for putting us on the map and providing countless number of joy-filled experiences in the years she was a part of the successfully growing team.
Trishaw #1 will be headed to newer pastures, possibly to an up-and-coming CWA chapter that needs a gently used/well-loved rig to get started. If you know of a possible new home for her, please reach out to board member Bill Nagel at pthfndr777@gmail.com or 215-518-1668.
A journalist for PBS was on the Platte River Trail and was so taken by the trishaws he saw, he wanted to do a story on CWAL. Click on the button to see the awesome coverage of one of the wonderful birthday trishaw experiences CWAL gives!

Co-founder Barb Wins Senior Leadership Award!
Barb Lotze - 2022 Allen Buckingham Senior Leadership Legacy Award Recipient
As we all know, Barb Lotze, co-founder of CWAL is a tireless and positive champion of older adults. She volunteers every ounce of her free time toward CWAL's continued impact on this population, ensuring that more and more older adults and those who aren't able to themselves, can have wind in their hair experiences while connecting with nature and other people. CWAL has grown exponentially, thanks to Barb's enthusiastic vision - bringing trishaws to more and more senior living residences, conducting many birthday trishaw experiences, and attracting upwards of 40 volunteer pilots!
Barb also works full-time as an Integrated Health Specialist for Aviant Healthcare, providing one-to-one care for patients and their families through their life journeys, educating them on what palliative and hospice care offers.
The Colorado Council on Aging took notice and are awarding Barb with the prestigious Allen Buckingham Senior Leadership Legacy Award. Allen M.A. Buckingham served on the Colorado Commission on Aging from 1986 to 1998. The Commission's annual Senior Legacy Award was awarded posthumously to Allen in December 1998 and the event was renamed in his honor. Allen served on the national AARP Board of Directors, as regional director of the Region VIII U.S. Administration on Aging, and held other key positions during his career. Allen promoted the needs of older persons, especially that they live in dignity, have freedom and choice, and realize full and active participation in their society.
The presentation will take place on June 16th at the Antlers Hotel in Colorado Springs.
We can't think of a more deserving person of this honor - we are so proud of you, Barb - congratulations and we know you will keep up the good work!
