Basics of Bicycling Program
Is provided by the Cascade Bicycle Club Education Foundation, free of charge. This is a hands-on unit, bicycling skills and safety courses are designed to give young students skills and knowledge in traffic-wise bicycling. Courses have been designed on the blacktop playground. For those not riding a bike yet, our volunteers will also help us run the Learn to Ride Program on the same days.
VOLUNTEERS WANTED:
THE BASICS OF BICYCLING, Bike Safety Unit & Learn to Ride Program
WHO: Any adult volunteer
WHAT: Assist your child‟s PE teacher to run the bicycle safety unit
WHEN: (May 20- June 7) during your child‟s PE time
WHY: With that many kids on bikes, I sure could use some help.
The Basics of Bicycling curriculum is new unit and is generously sponsored by the Cascade
Bicycle Club. This unit included 30 bikes and helmets, plus a basic curriculum to teach kids to, bike
safe, and bike smart. Students are encouraged and allowed to bring their own helmets. Students
may also bring/ride their own bikes as long as they are willing to share it with other students during the day.
Be sure bikes are in good working order. Students who bring their own bikes are responsible for their own bikes.
Weather permitting; the lessons will take place outside on the school grounds. If rainy or stormy
the bike unit will take place in the gym.
This program runs most successfully with a minimum of 2 volunteers per day per class; 1 to help kids
who are learning how to ride („learners‟) and 1 to assist teacher with running the bike safety
stations. More is always better and I will most likely need more volunteers from 12:45-3:30 for our younger grades.
If you‟re interested, please email me and let me know your availability for days and session times below.
Dates May 20 - June 7 (2 sessions each day) Volunteer for one or both
Morning Session 10:30 - 11:45 (Subject to fair weather)
