Volunteers Needed June 4th - 14th

Who: ChildServe is coordinating a bike riding camp for 5 children with special health
care needs, who want to learn how to ride a bike without training wheels.

What: A bike riding camp to teach children with special health care needs to ride a 2-
wheeled bicycle. We follow a protocol that uses bikes without training wheels or pedals,
and focuses first on braking, then balancing, and eventually adding pedals to the bike
and pedaling. All of the children attending camp can ride a bike with training wheels
and is trying to learn to ride without training wheels. Each participant needs a volunteer
with them at all times to guide/instruct them and hold on to their gait belt for safety/
confidence. There will be 5 children participating and we will need volunteers to be one-
on-one with each camper.

When: June 4-14, 2012 on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday evenings from 7-8:15pm

Where: Johnston ChildServe parking lot, near Entrance A

Why: Because it’s FUN!!! And there are five amazing children who want desperately to
ride a bike without training wheels, like their friends, and need your help.

We are looking for volunteers to come for any or all of the
6 sessions. Please contact Amie Hanson at (515) 727-1564 or
amiehan@childserve.org if you are interested in volunteering.
Please also pass this information along to anyone you know
who may be interested.
