Safe Routes To School is HOT! What a great year for active kids walking, biking and rolling to school:

  • Traverse City Walks To School Day crushed the old record with 847 students being awesome.
  • Fridays Fantastico and Winter Walk Wednesdays, our weekly Safe Routes To School celebrations, inspires 1000+ kids to keep moving year round.
  • The Bike Mas Project, our free after-school bike safety program, expands to a fourth school.
  • Estrellas, our learn-to-ride program for preschoolers using balance bikes, BLOWS UP and teaches 200+ preschoolers at 7 schools how to ride.
  • Traverse City Bikes To School Day empowers nearly 300 elementary and middle school students to pedal to class.
  • El Barrio Bike Fix, our mobile bike-fix initiative, provides free bike tune-ups at 5 neighborhood schools.

We’re excited to expand our Safe Routes To School initiative across Traverse City but we need your help to support more happy, healthy, ready-to-learn kids! Please consider a donation here.
