Volunteer for Bike First!

Earn community service hours!

Half- and full-day volunteer opportunities working as spotters helping Bike First! participants learn to ride give you the chance to spend time with some very cool people, be part of the magic when a new rider takes flight, and still have the energy to celebrate afterward. Don’t worry about exercising this week for you will get plenty here! Bring your community service form from your school and we’ll sign it.

The riders you work with will bond with you. The power of that bond is critical to the rider’s success and can be compromised by hit-or-miss volunteer attendance. Additionally, many of our participants are sensitive to change. For these reasons, consistency in spotter attendance is vital.

Volunteers should be in at least 8th grade. If you are interested in volunteering but aren't yet in 8th grade, please contact bobbibikefirst@gmail.com to discuss it.

Boomers BBQ has donated lunches for Bike First! volunteers since the first year!

"The best week of my summer!"

Many volunteers return to Bike First! year after year to experience the magic of watching a child ride a bicycle for the first time—not to mention the allure of another cool t-shirt. We welcome volunteers who are at least 8th grade.
