You Can Ride 2 Volunteer Signup

2024/04/14: Bike Fitting Day #2 (Low Support Bikes)

You Can Ride 2 Bike Fitting Days are our most important events as it is here that children get fit with bikes and take them home for the season! Children who do not use mobility aids but need a little more support to ride are invited to this event. Location: The Goodwill Impact Center, 11415-168 St NW Edmonton. Morning shifts run from 9:00 AM to 12:30 PM. Afternoon shifts will run from 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM. Orientation for all positions will be provided. Note: Families who volunteer will have their $75 Rental Fee refunded after completing of an ~ 4-hour shift. You can have someone volunteer on your behalf! When you sign in, indicate which child you are volunteering on behalf of. There are additional shifts available on Saturday April 13, if you are available. We really appreciate your help and look forward to seeing you soon! Thanks, The You Can Ride 2 Team
