About the Program
Bicycle Rental |
Trips for Kids: Western Youth Network is a chapter of a national program called Trips for Kids: National. Trips for Kids was started in Marin County, California in 1988 to provide "new challenges for youth from many different backgrounds and who face many different challenges in life. Some come from the inner city where there is temptation to join a gang. Some live on reservations where after-school activities are limited. Some come from homes where there's just not enough money to buy a bicycle. Despite their difference, all the kids have one thing in common. They are kids and kids love bikes."
Trips for Kids: Western Youth Network provides a chance for bicycle rides and adventure to enhance all of our youth programs. It is our goal to provide positive experiences to youth who otherwise would not have these opportunities. We provide rides for our Project Venture, After School, and Mentoring programs throughout the year. TFK:WYN is a community resource, please contact Nicole Hiegl with any questions about our trips, if you would like to volunteer, or contract TFK:WYN to help your group on a ride.
Trips for Kids: Western Youth Network now rents bicycles! We have a small fleet of various sized bicycles that are available to rent for community groups and families. The cost of each bicycle rental is $10 per day, which includes the use of a helmet. Local bicycle transportation is available for an additional fee. Our mission is to get more kids out on bikes, so let us know how we can help get your group out on the trail. Please check out the Bike Rental Agreement form or give us a call for more information.
A big thanks to the Trips for Kids sponsors. With out the help of these companies Trips for Kids would not be able to provide the wonderful experiences that they do. |
