Bike & Walk to School Month

Bike & Walk To School Events
Bike & Walk to School Days are events that encourages students and parents to bike and walk to school. On event days, volunteers often host greeting tables with food and/or rewards, donated by community business sponsors, for students who participate. Special neighborhood bike trains and walking school buses are also often organized as a safe and appealing way to encourage groups of students and parents to travel together.
