The annual all-Room Nine Community School Bike-a-Thon will be Friday, October 22, 2010, along the Sammamish Slough River Trail/Burke Gilman Trail. This event is not only a fund raiser. It is a real world math lesson, community and team building experience and fun physical fitness.
Students, parents, and staff will ride on the Sammamish/Burke-Gilman trail for a specific distance. The day begins at school, and dismissed from there to the various start locations. The riders will meet at Wilmot Gateway Park in Woodinville for lunch. Groups will start at various locations along the trail, follow the slough, and meet in Woodinville.
Prior to the event itself, the Bike Techs will inspect the bikes and organizers can check all equipment, review safety rules and verify that every rider has a great helmet fit for their adventure.
The money raised by pledges from Bike-A-Thon is used to help pay for Spring Camps.
