On October 6, 2010, Wellstone and Roosevelt celebrated walking and bicycling at a before school event. Over 60 students and staff either walked, took transit, or rode their bicycles to school. They were greeted with a festive booth staffed by student volunteers. Everyone enjoyed donuts, coffee, and a chance to "spin the bike wheel" for prizes like helmets, lights, locks, and water bottles. This kind of event is easy and fun to organize. If you would like to organize one at your school, please check out the Minneapolis Bike Ambassadors website:
