What:
Be sure to join us on Saturday, August 28, 2010 at Pierson Park for the First Annual Community Bike Rodeo from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm. The event is FREE and open to all ages. Participants have an opportunity to have their bikes and helmets checked for safety. This is a great opportunity to emphasize bike safety as the school year is set to start! Helmets are required and a limited number of helmets are available for free while supplies last.
A variety of bike safety skills stations will be available, including a slow race, figure 8 run, thin line riding and more. The event is co-sponsored by McKinleyville Parks & Recreation and the McKinleyville Family Resource Center. We hope to see you there!
For more information, please contact McKinleyville Parks & Recreation at 839-9003.
