Walk/Bike Nashville would like to extend condolences to the family of Trenton Watson. We are saddened by the bicycle incident on January 7, 2008 that took such a promising young person from our community. In response, Walk/Bike Nashville, in coordination with the East Nashville community will offer a bicycle safety clinic on Saturday, January 19th. Parents and children are welcome and encouraged to participate. The first 50 children to arrive will receive a free bicycle helmet.
The clinic is from 10am-12Noon at the East Community Center in the auditorium. The clinic is drop-in style, so parents and children may join the clinic throughout the day and enjoy various on-bike modules and other educational opportunities.
