Although the event is free, you need to visit www.foxtucson.com to reserve seats.

In 1983, the famous El Tour de Tucson bicycle race was founded. It all started when a man named Richard DeBernardis was traveling around the United States on his bicycle. Upon visiting Tucson, he fell in love with the weather and thought this would be a perfect place for a bike ride. He checked the Old Farmer’s Almanac and learned the best time to have this event would be in the fall, the week before Thanksgiving, because it rarely rains that week.

Have you ever wondered what it’s like to be a monster truck driver? Well, I interviewed some monster truck drivers to help answer questions you may have.

Bob Chandler is considered the “godfather” of monster trucks. He is credited as being the inventor of monster trucks, with the first truck named Bigfoot created in 1975. Jim Kramer, who was one of Bigfoot’s early drivers, also co-founded Bigfoot. A lot has changed in the world of Monster Jam since then.

 Do you know what an Eagle Scout is? Well, the Young Reporters were able to interview Esai Aviles recently, and he told us all about Eagle Scouts.

A couple of facts about Scouts most people may not know is that there is a lot of charity involved and helping the community. Less than 10% of Boy Scouts achieve the highest rank of an Eagle Scout.

Esai was a Young Reporter for six or seven years and he’s been an Scout for about eight years. He first started as a Cub Scout when he was in first grade because his mom signed him up and he wanted to have fun with friends.
