SAVE THE GRAVEYARD
Preservation of Graveyard Trails in Schertz, TX(1032 FM 78, Schertz, TX 78154)
Para Community Efforts (PCE) is working to preserve the Graveyard Trails, a valued cycling space in Schertz, TX (1032 FM 78, Schertz, TX 78154). With recent land developments, we aim to secure the land—home to the majority of the trails and jumps—as a property for PCE use.
Our plan includes working with the developer to structure a donation/sell, engaging with necessary city officials, and rallying community support. Through research, advocacy, and stewardship, we strive to protect this vital space for both adaptive and non-adaptive cyclists.
Our Plan:
Land Aquisition: Collaborate with the current developer to structure a donation/sell.
Community Advocacy: Rally support from cyclists, residents, and organizations to strengthen our mission.
Stewardship & Preservation: Conduct research, develop maintenance plans, and implement strategies to sustain and enhance the trails for both adaptive and non-adaptive riders.

ADAPT ACROSS THE ALPS
Breaking Barriers in Endurance Cycling
Para Community Efforts (PCE) is committed to advancing inclusion, leadership, and community development through cycling. In 2025, we will support one adaptive athlete—our CEO and a dedicated para-athlete—in competing in the Race Across the Alps (June 27-28, 2025). This initiative serves as a global advocacy effort, demonstrating the potential of adaptive athletes and fostering awareness of accessibility in ultra-endurance sports.
This program is designed to:
Advocate for Inclusion – Showcase the resilience and capability of adaptive athletes in high-performance cycling.
Inspire & Lead – Encourage disabled and non-disabled individuals alike to push their limits in sport and life.
Build Community – Strengthen relationships with international para-sports organizations and support adaptive athletes worldwide.
Expand Opportunities – Grow PCE’s network, secure strategic partnerships, and create long-term pathways for para-athletes.
