Programs for Youth
Our programs aim to improve individual health, environmental quality, and enhance the livability of our communities by helping people gain bicycle knowledge, skills, and confidence.
Bike Camp
In a creative and supportive environment - and with an emphasis on experiential learning - campers ages 6 -15 build confidence, knowledge, and skills. Campers learn how to ride safely, fix their bikes, and travel to fun destinations throughout the city. Read about our adventures during the summer of 2009 here. Learn more about our 2010 Bike Camps here.
Scholarships and earn-a-bike options: We are committed to making bicycling accessible to everyone regardless of income level. Therefore limited financial scholarships and earn-a-bike opportunities are available for Bike Camp.
Bike Club
Our after-school Bike Clubs provide hands-on, experiential after-school workshops in which 9 to 12 year olds from families with low incomes learn safe riding skills, basic bike maintenance, and the importance of wearing a properly fitted helmet. By working hard and participating throughout the course of the 12-session program, participants earn their own bicycle, lock, and helmet to take home!
