At this year's District 5710 banquet Lawrence Central Rotary was awarded the Significant Achievement Award for our community service project: Ride Lawrence.
Ride Lawrence's intention is to be a clearinghouse for bicycling information in the City of Lawrence and the Douglas County Kansas area.
On July 16th we are also sponsoring a Community Bike Ride that will offer activities for every age and skill level, including a Training Wheels Take-off area for kids wanting to learn how to ride without training wheels.
The event will be held from 9 to 11 a.m. on Saturday, July 16, at the Lawrence Rotary Arboretum. Several bicycling organizations have already volunteered to help with the event. Contact me if you would like to help or need more information ([email protected]).
