The Fourth Annual MWV Bicycling Club Kids' Bike Safety Day

Thank You! The Fourth Annual MWV Bicycle Club Kids’ Bike Safety Day was held at StoryLand May 12, 2012. Over 200 Youngsters attended. The event saw children from throughout the Valley take part in bike and helmet safety checks, rules of the road presented by our local police, a sixstation bike handling course thru the grounds of StoryLand, and refreshments & a goody bag compliments of many local businesses. Nearly forty volunteers from the Club and the community were involved in the planning and running of the event. Many thanks to all who made the event possible with their financial support and/or time and effort. A special thanks to StoryLand for the use of their very wonderful and unique facility.
