Denise Delorie, Safe Routes to School Program Assistant
 Denise comes to us from the Fairfield Healthy Community Coalition and a School Health Coordinator background. Denise remembers in her youth walking to school in what we now call a “Walking School Bus”. She remembers having an older student come to her house to pick her up and walk her to school and knew that when she became one of the older students it would be her turn to pick up the younger children in her neighborhood and walk them to school in the walking school bus style, making sure all arrived safe. In Tobin's absence Denise will be managing and coordinating the BCM's encouragement program.
Maggie Warren, Event and Volunteer Coordinator
 Maggie discovered the BCM in 1999 at the Tour de Cure in Biddeford and has volunteered in many different capacities since then, including an eight-year stint on the board. She started biking late in life and has a special place in her heart for the Smell the Roses riders that she meets everywhere she goes. She has joined the staff on a part-time basis to coordinate the events and amazing volunteers that make BCM so successful and world-renowned.
