KY3 News reports on a many-wheeled holiday gift:
Thursday was quite a day for students at Boyd Elementary School. They were about to wrap up before the Christmas holiday when teachers led the students into the library for a lesson in giving that they won't soon forget.

The faces, screams and room full of bikes told the story. The 170 brand new bikes are a Christmas gift to every student at the school, kindergarten through fifth grade. It was a surprise so big that it was overwhelming.

Nearby Central Assembly of God bought the bikes and volunteers put them together to make this possible. Attorney Aaron Sachs donated helmets.
