M4A Highlight
On Friday, Dec. 13th, 2024, roughly 35 guests attended the Mobility Heroes Winter Luncheon celebration. The fun and memorable event included tamales, sautéed jalapenos which were dangerously confused for green peppers, a photo booth, a tattooing station, and an award ceremony honoring drivers, safety professionals, volunteers, and ambassadors. We are grateful to these amazing mobility heroes for going above and beyond to make a difference in the world of mobility in Boulder County.
