Seeking Kids on Bikes for Dogwood Parade

Do you want to be in the Dogwood Parade Friday, April 27 at 7 p.m? The Bicycle Program's entry will feature kids ages 5 - 10 and their parents. Kids should come in a spring-themed costume (adults can too!). What does spring mean to you? Flowers, sunshine, bees? You and your child should also decorate her/his helmet and bicycle. We want to show how festive and fun bicycling is!

If you are interested in participating, RSVP to kelley.segars@knoxtrans.org Space is limited so email soon! Your email should include:

1) Name and age of child (or children; it's ok if a sibling doesn't fall into the 5 - 10 age range)
2) Idea for costume theme
3) Phone number

Kids should be able to bike at a sloooowwww parade pace, but also should be able to keep up when we're told to catch up to the float in front. Adults will walk. (Kids must be accompanied by a parent--no drop offs!)

Helmets required for kids. Should be available for parade line-up by 6 p.m. at the latest. (We will have more instructions once we receive them from Dogwood Arts.)
