National Ride for Reading Week
May 6 - 12

2018 Ride for Reading
Thursday, May 10 @ 8:30 AM
Highland Avenue Elementary School

Meet: 7:30 a.m. - Downtown MBC Bike Corral
355 Commerce Street - Montgomery, AL 36104
​WE NEED AS MANY DELIVERY RIDERS AS POSSIBLE TO TRANSPORT 3,000 BOOKS! We will meet at the downtown MBC Bike Corral, load our bags & bikes with books, discuss the morning agenda, and then begin our ride to Highland Avenue Elementary School by 8:00. Delivery at the school will be at 8:30 am. We will be pedaling 3.6 miles (one way) along downtown streets to the school. The bike ride will be slow, casual, and friendly for beginners.

​The deliveries usually take approximately 3 hours including the ride. All volunteers will receive more details via email prior to the delivery date. For more information, contact Bethany Garth, our Ride for Reading coordinator, at Bethany.Garth@Gmail.com

We will be posting the RIde with GPS route link soon. Check back!
