Due to the uncertain nature of the pandemic and how it will affect the annual Bike Safety Rodeo, the Safe Routes to School Committee, Fireweed Bike Co-op, and the Grand Marais Dairy Queen are sponsoring smaller maintenance and helmet fitting events through April and early May.

Your child can bring their bike to the event to have the maintenance completed and do a helmet fit check. A small number of helmets will be available for kids who need one.

The outdoor events in Grand Marais will be held from 12p to 4p on Saturday, April 17th, and Saturday, April 24th. The address of the events is 8 7th Ave. W (Art House B&B/Fireweed Bike).  

No preregistration is required. These are outdoor-only events that require face coverings and physical distancing. Please stay home if you are ill or have been exposed to COVID-19 or determined as a close contact. If you are unable to attend any of the scheduled events due to illness, contact Jay Arrowsmith DeCoux at 218-370-1625 to discuss alternative options.

Each child that attends a maintenance event will receive a Dairy Queen Blizzard certificate and a small thank you gift from the SRTS Committee.
