Break Into Biking @ Club Rush!
Want to talk to an experienced team member about what it’s like to be a Bike Dawg? Come out for Club Rush, Friday, October 5 at lunch time. Our Team Captains, Sarah Gorton and Zack Hatch, will be collecting info from interested riders and rallying last year’s team members to get revved up for the coming season!
Parents, this is a student-only event that takes place during school hours, so no need to volunteer. Follow us on Instagram @bikedawgs for reminders and updates.
