Past Events

Operation Get Out, WEDU, Ski Dock, Mellow Johnny's, SRAM, Giant Bicycles, HEB, San Antonio Sports Foundation, Winter Garden Produce, and hundreds of volunteers built, transported, staged and embraced the children returning to school from the Robb Elementary community in August 2022 in Uvalde, Texas. Over 800 bicycles, helmets, locks, tubes, special needs trikes, art supplies, info kits, and stuffed animals were made available through endless volunteer support and donations.

There is nothing better than a bike to help children Get Out! Bikes are an inspiring tool for positive mental, physical and emotional wellness impact. The community of Tellico Plains, TN is the gateway for scenic mountain tours, yet nearly half of the community is living below poverty with similar percentages of obesity and low education attainment.

Be part of the team that makes a difference in Tellico Plains to positively impact the wellness of these kids - and potentially make an impact on the trajectory of their future!

A huge thank you to our partners: Hincapie Sports, WEDU, The Move, Haro Bikes, Mellow Johnny's, Ski Dock & Centurion Boats!
