Bike To School Week At Jackman

What a great week it was!  Bike to School Week was a huge success with lot of eager students and supportive families involved.  
  • On Monday, 145 bikers received bike stickers.  
  • On Tuesday, 200 bikers were treated to breakfast muffins.
  • On Wednesday, 215 bikers decorated their bikes with straws and ribbons.   A Jackman favourite.
  • On Thursday, 175 bikers received a bike safety booklet.   Here’s a pdf version of the booklet...
  • And finally, on Friday, 205 bikers entered a draw for a chance to win a bike helmet or a bike bell.  Congratulations to this year’s winners.   
Bike Week is officially over, still we hope that kids will continue to be excited about biking to school. 

Lesson learned… Leave the car at home and bike to school (and other places you need to travel).   It’s a great alternative to driving.  It's good exercise.   It’s an eco-friendly way to travel.   Less cars.

Now, all we need is some more bike racks at Jackman.   We’re working on it. 


Don’t worry walkers… we appreciate you too.   In September, we’ll celebrate you during our 'Walk to School Week' campaign.
