Initially, this father and son pair traveled to and from school by bike and trailer. This past week, the pair have been seen biking back and forth together. Cycling is a great way to get back and forth to school.

This is a massive race held on the BFA Fairfax fields and trails. Local elementary, middle and high schools send teams to the event. The course is hilly and rugged.

BIKING FRIDAYS IN OCTOBER (FROM HOUGHTON PARK TO SCHOOL)
“It’s not about what it is, it’s about what it can become.”
— The Lorax
Greetings from the Climate Committee! We are announcing Biking Fridays from Houghton Park during the month of October! If you don’t have a bike, walking is an option although bikers and walkers will not be kept together while getting to school.
Meet up at Houghton Park earliest at 6:50 and leaving at 7:00.
We are doing this because if you walk, bike, or carpool to school, it lessens air pollution and hopefully our actions will slow global warming.
Thank you for reading, biking and walking!
The Climate Committee. Contact Mitch Craib with Questions mcraib@maplerun.org
