WE NEED AS MANY DELIVERY RIDERS AS POSSIBLE TO TRANSPORT 1,500 BOOKS! We will meet at the new ASU football stadium, load our bags & bikes with books, discuss the morning agenda, and then begin our ride to Fitzpatrick Elementary School. Delivery at the school will start soon after we ride our bikes to the school. We will be pedaling 8.3 miles (one way) along city streets to the school. The bike ride will be slow, casual, and friendly for beginners.
The deliveries usually take approximately 3-4 hours including the ride. All volunteers will receive more details via email prior to the delivery date. For more information, contact Carol Ann Mustin or Vicki Taylor, our Ride for Reading coordinators, at CarolAnnMustin@MgmBikeClub.org or VickiTaylor@MgmBikeClub.org

The 2018, 2017 and 2016 Montgomery Ride for Reading deliveries were a huge success! We delivered to Highland Avenue Elementary in 2018, Southlawn Elementary in 2017 and Chisholm Elementary in 2016.
Thank you to our collection locations at Maxwell AFB ACSC & SOS, NewSouth Books, Montgomery Multisport, & Bell Road Cycle and Nutrition. Nearly 1,000 books were collected from the combined efforts from Maxwell AFB SOS and ACSC classes! Thank you to NewSouth Books for their generous donation of locally published books to our collection! Thank you to Better World Books for their continued support of children's literacy across the nation and for donating 2,000 books to our Montgomery delivery! We were super excited to have SAG support from Rareform Productions in 2019 and Jack Ingram Motors, Inc. Mercedes-Benz Dealer in 2016-2018 to help with this 2,000+ book delivery! |
