Bike Camp. We run summer programs for children ages 3-12 and of all riding capabilities and we teach safety knowledge, safety skills, trail riding, street riding, and bike maintenance. Our bike camps have been running since 1995 and we currently have locations in BC, Alberta, and Ontario. I am emailing you today because we will be running a camp near your school this summer and we are looking for Instructors and Jr Instructors to join our team.
Our Jr Instructor program is for students in grades 8 through 10 and is a great opportunity for students to gain volunteer experience and develop their leadership skills in a fun, active, outdoor setting.
