Wichita County 4-Hers and members of Trail Life got an early start on the day hosting Rest Stop #1 in Iowa Park for this year’s HH100 bicycle race and ride. With over 7600 riders this year, we cheered them on, provided them with refreshments to keep them going, held bicycles and met so many people from all over.
