Special FABB Offer for National Youth Bike Summit
Hey, FABB members, here is a reminder about and a special offer for next weekend’s National Youth Bike Summit, which is being held at the Hyatt Regency Crystal City, 2799 Jefferson Davis Highway, in Arlington from October 6-8.
As you may know, the summit is a three-day conference on bicycle education, advocacy, and leadership. It focuses on young people, programs for children and young adults, and the role youth can play in leading the charge on bicycle advocacy. This 7th annual summit will feature numerous activities, workshops and sessions by national and local advocates, including Fairfax’s own Jenifer Madden and Fionnuala Quinn, and the National Youth Bicycle Ride on Sunday. Details on the sessions and activities can be found here on the Summit’s website.
What’s the special offer? Well, how would you or a young person you know like to attend the summit for free? The registration fee, which covers all three days, is $35 for youth (ages 24 and under) and $60 for adults. FABB is offering to pay this cost for the first four members who contact us and agree to attend the conference. If you are interested, please contact president@fabb-bikes.org.
This a great opportunity for a young person to gain experience as a leader and an advocate for making our community better and stronger.
Please join us there.
