News Release
With summer right around the corner, it is time to dust off the old bicycle and get ready for this year's GoByBike week event, taking place across BC June 3rd – June 9th, 2024! We're hosting a community event on Wednesday, June 5th from 6 pm - 7 pm! We will have some information around bike safety, as well as, Chucky's Cycle shop van for bike maintenances and a few kids bikes for attendees.
Want to get involved? You can register a team by heading to: https://gobybikebc.ca/
Go-By-Bike week is all about encoring folks to ride their bike instead of drive their car, and any ride counts, whether to and from work or school, to get groceries, to get some fresh air or meet up for a coffee with friends, or to enjoy a trail ride on a mountain bike. Getting around on smaller wheels like scooters and rollerblades counts, too! Even taking the bus part way, or carpooling halfway, or using a car for a portion of a long commute counts too, as long as it involves biking some portion of the way!
Celebration Stations: As you ride on your way to work on Friday, June 7th between 8am-8:30am stop by our refreshment tables for some beverages and treats. You will be greeted by our Firefighters, Wellness Committee, Change Makers' Education Society, and Rec Staff outside the Fire Hall and at the Civic Centre! Refreshments provided in partnership with Northern Savings Credit Union will be provided as supplies last.
