“Spin Cody” Fundraiser Features Local Celebrity

An event this weekend in Cody will bring a home-grown celebrity back to town, while raising money for two local foundations.

The second annual “Spin Cody” event on Saturday will raise money for two local charities – the Cody Regional Health Foundation and the Cody Recreation Foundation. The event features 30 teams riding spin bikes at the Paul Stock Aquatic and Recreation Center – and Kelly Bower with the Rec Center says there are several ways that teams can win prizes.

Annalea Avery with the Cody Regional Health Foundation says a bonus this year will be the presence of Quinn Rivera, a Cody High School graduate who represented his hometown as a contestant on NBC’s Titan Games in January. Avery says he’ll be kind of like a celebrity coach.

Proceeds from the event will go to purchase a state-of-the-art 3D mammography machine for Cody Regional Health, and will also help fund the splash park that’s planned to be installed at Mentock Park this summer.
