Bike Rodeo on May 16th, 4:00-6:30pm

BEMIDJI, MINNESOTA (April 25, 2012) – Bring your children to the Boys and Girls Club for the Bike Rodeo on Wednesday, May 16th from 4:00-6:30pm. This fun event teaches cycling safety and skills. Free helmets and other prizes will be given away. There will be a limited number of reconditioned bikes given away to children in need of a bike. Parents must be present and the child must participate in the rodeo to receive a bike. First come first served.
We are collecting bikes from April 15-30th. Bikes must be in working condition (e.g. gears and pedals turn) and they can be dropped off at the Boys and Girls Club of the Bemidji Area, located at 1600 Minnesota Avenue NW, Bemidji, MN 56601.
See you at the Bike Rodeo on May 16th!
Natalie Gille, Bemidji resident and outdoor enthusiast
