On his 2,000-mile charity bike ride across the country, Chuck Robinson, former co-owner of Village Books and Paper Dreams, Bellingham and Lynden, Wash., rode through Ann Arbor, Mich., along with Richard Hunt from AdventureKEEN. During their stop, Hunt presented Binc with the contribution from AdventureKEEN's promotional event (Shop Local, Live Local) in June. Their fund-raising initiative was a first, and it helped to spread awareness about Binc and raised funds to help booksellers. Pictured: (l.-r.)
