Hello bussers! We’ve already got the art challenge going for Ben and Serge’s driving shift for a DB2018 Fangamer tshirt!
Since Ben and Serge are SUCH GOOD FRIENDS, and we know they’re better together than they are apart, we want you to depict the fusion of the two in their purest form. Feel free to use any medium of art, it doesn’t have to just be drawn!
Once it’s done, email it in to contest@desertbus.org with the subject line #PowerBerge, and make sure you get that submitted before 5pm PST!!!
Driving: Monday Nov.12th 10am – 10pm
Serge Yager
A long time coffee aficionado, Serge sets aside the mug to put both hands on
the wheel for the first time.

Ben Ulmer

Dr. Joseph Albietz will be calling in to Desert Bus for Hope
on Monday, November 12th at 11:00am PST
Dr. Joseph Albietz is a Pediatric Intensivist and Medical Director of Child Life at Children’s Hospital Colorado (CHCO), and an Associate Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. Supported by a grant from Child’s Play, Dr. Albietz is the world’s first Medical Director of Child Life. His focus has been to maximize the clinical benefit of commercially available and emerging gaming and entertainment technologies. He and the Child Life department have recently launched a number of successful programs including the first Child’s Play funded Gaming Technology Specialist position, the Extended Reality Program at CHCO, a gaming tech education program for staff, child-piloted telepresence robots, a number of pilot programs in partnership with gaming charities, and are working to create a hospital-based makerspace for patients. We’ll talk with Dr. Joe about this partnership and the impact of your contributions, and the contributions of others across the broader Child’s Play Charity community.
Got a question for Dr. Joe? Tweet @desertbus with the hashtag #DBDrJoe and we might ask your question on-air?
