Ability Sport Network is partnering with ICan Shine to host an ICan Bike event from June 17th, 2024 to June 21, 2024! This event is to teach local individuals with disabilities how to ride a conventional bike and become a lifelong independent rider! Success in learning to ride a bike is a major accomplishment. Learning to ride independently results in increased confidence, a sense of accomplishment, and an improved self-image.

How to Volunteer: 

Be a "spotter" for the same rider for each of the 5 days of camp and experience the thrill of giving the gift of riding a bike! ICan Bike Volunteers must be at least 15 years old, able to attend 90 minutes at the same time each of the five days of camp, able to provide physical, emotional, and motivational support to assigned riders, and able and willing to get some exercise for a great cause!
