A message from Chris Kiddy, Director of Trips for Kids Tampa:
Hi Swampers,
Trips For Kids Tampa(TFK Tampa) needs your help! We can't meet the demand for our rides without greatly increasing our volunteer base. We have more than 10 rides, each with 10-35 kids, scheduled over the next few months and have more agencies lined up wanting to schedule rides. If we can't increase our volunteer base we might have to start turning kids away.
Being a ride volunteer is fun and easy! Every volunteer buddies up with 1-3 kids on a ride and acts as a mentor and guide along the way, offering coaching and encouragement to their buddies throughout the ride. It is a fun and rewarding experience you are sure to enjoy.
Help us introduce the sport to the future generation of mountain bikers!
Please visit our website and learn more about TFK Tampa. You can see a schedule of our upcoming rides and sign up to participate.
www.mtbyouthride.org TFK Tampa provides mountain bike outings to "at risk youth" from the Bay Area. We provide the kids with bikes, helmets, water and experienced ride leaders to guide them on the trail.
