Pedals In Prescott: January 2011

Pedals in Prescott

We meet at Grandview Park Church to work on bicycles. Any youth that are interested in being involved are invited to join us.

There are no bicycle shops or stores anywhere close to our neighborhood.

Pedals in Prescott will:

-Provide bicycle repair and restoration for area kids.

-Give youth the opportunity to develop mechanical and organizational skills, as well as teamwork and leadership.

-Organize bicycle rides and develop safe areas for youth to ride.

Bike Club in the Snow.

Had a fairly chaotic day at bike club. After a short devotion, we started working on some bikes and were back and forth to my house getting tools and parts as the snow fell. I'm sure the neighbors and the cop sitting on the corner were wondering what was going on.

First meeting

Our first meeting went well. We had 5 young men show up. We talked about what we were going to do and then cleaned out a room in the church that will be our meeting place. Then we looked at some of the bikes that were donated. "Dibs." "That one is mine." They each picked out a bike to rebuild. We will start on that next week.

We are changing the time to 3:00 to 5:00 for now until it gets warmer.

A great start. I know we will have a larger turnout next week. Thanks for your prayers.
