Bike Repair with Red Raccoon Bike Rescue

Everyone welcome

Red Raccoon Bike Rescue is back at McCormick Branch to help you with your bike repairs this summer. Volunteers will be on hand to help you get your bike all fixed up, but be prepared to get your hands dirty and learn some new skills. We’ll plan to be outside on the lawn (changes will be made if weather conditions are poor).

This is a drop-in event, but please note that when you arrive you will be asked to check-in at the desk. Participants will be taken on a first come, first served basis. Volunteers will do their best to help all participants, but there is no guarantee they will be able to get to everyone who arrives to the session.

Everyone is welcome but this popular program is first-come-first-served.  This is a drop-in program.

This program runs monthly on the second Wednesday of each month from May to July. The dates in this series are May 8, June 12, July 10, and Aug 14.

Does Your Child Need a Bike?

Bikes may be available on a first-come, first-served basis on the date of the program.

Learn more about Red Raccoon Bike Rescue on Instagram or Facebook.
