2006 Bike-A-Thon
Bike for Bread is a
non-profit
organization that
has been raising
money for years to
support those who
are hungry and
homeless. It is run
entirely by
volunteers and has
no overhead costs so
all money raised
goes directly to
help those in
need. Bike for Bread
2006 is a
student-driven
initiative started
by the Oswegatchie
School Enrichment
Clusters.
The Bike-A-Thon is
open to people of
all ages. Everyone
is invited to
participate in the
Waterford High
School (WHS) ride to see how
many 1-mile laps
they are able to
complete.
Adults (those over
14-years old)
looking for a more
challenging ride are
invited to do the
15-20 mile ride
around the shoreline
of Waterford and New
London.
Instead of raising
money on a “per lap”
or “per mile” basis,
we are asking that
riders simply
request sponsorship
to ride (download
sponsorship form) or make a
donation
themselves.
Sponsorship /
donations will be
accepted in the form
of checks (made out
to “Bike for Bread”)
or cash. Sponsor
sheets and donations
may be turned in at
the registration
site on the day of
the ride.
Please contact us if
you have questions
or you’d like more
