Bike Safety, Part Two

I have to tell you about tonight's Parent Education event, "Bringing Up Bicyclists". 50 parents attended Richard Swent's talk about bicycle safety at El Carmelo. Richard's presentation has everything; videos, diagrams, demonstration (Richard said "I got to ride my bike on the stage!"). It was great. In addition to our own EC families, we had attendees from Escondido, Hoover, Ohlone, Duveneck, Walter Hayes, Barron Park, Stratford School and JL Stanford Middle School! Congratulations to Richard, Carrie Manley, PTA officers and the EC community: you're awesome! Don't forget to participate in Wednesday's Walk and Roll to School.
