IN THE COMMUNITY

FAMILY SPOTLIGHT

Dear Durango Derailers,



Thank you for helping our family survive and thrive! We are forever grateful to our home town's support. Joey and I were born and raised in Durango. We are blessed to live in Bayfield and work in Durango with our three wonderful girls. Our oldest has significant medical needs, as does our middle. They both require visits to several specialists at Denver and Colorado Springs Childrens' hospitals. Both girls require procedures every 3 to 6 months in order to live their best life. We couldn't do it without the help of Durango Derailers. We are grateful to our community and try to give back every way we can. Thank for all you do for our community and our family, Derailers!
