Tewksbury Annual Bike Rodeo

Tewksbury 4th Annual Bike Rodeo

The Tewksbury Police Department, in conjunction with local businesses and community groups, would like to announce its Annual Bike Rodeo. This bicycle safety event will be held on Sunday, June 8, 2014 from 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM in the Tewksbury Memorial High School parking lot, 320 Pleasant Street. Bicycle safety is critically important and helmets are the law for riders aged 16 and younger.

The Bike Rodeo will have a station for bikes to be inspected for safety, helmet fittings, and an obstacle course designed to teach bicycle safety. Each child will be entered in a drawing for a chance to win donated prizes.

Involvement from the Tewksbury business community would be appreciated if possible as this is a high visibility outreach event. Suggested opportunities include:

                Volunteering time to staff a table while wearing your merchant logo shirts

                Donating merchant coupons to be used as rewards for children “caught” wearing their bicycle helmets

                Donating a bicycle (obtained inexpensively at local discount stores for $50) or other bicycle related equipment ( horns, reflectors, first aid items)

                Donating items to help with the rodeo set up such as balloons, popcorn station, arts and crafts, snacks, raffle items, etc.

We appreciate your interest in helping keep the children of Tewksbury safe!
