During Idaho Gives, the Lusk District transforms into a hub for dozens of Idaho non-profits, with organizations setting up on the streets and storefronts to engage with the community. This year, join the Boise Bicycle Project and other non-profits in the Lusk District for a lively event featuring live music, food, games, and a variety of activities!The BFF Block Party is happening on April 30th from 4 - 7 PM, followed by an after-party at Lost Grove Brewing from 7 - 8 PM. Those who attend will have the opportunity to learn about Idaho non-profits while enjoying a fun-filled tour of each storefront and street stretch, including BBP’s two featured activities.
1. Riding 100 Laps for $100k
Join us for a hilarious time “riding 100 laps for $100k” during the BFF Block Party from 5 - 7 PM! This goofy community event is part of our Idaho Gives campaign, where we aim to raise $100,000 in four days between April 29 - May 2nd.
This ride isn’t your typical tour, it’ll be a ride where anything goes - bikes, skateboards, rollerblades, unicycles, you name it! The funkier the outfit, the better. Bring your sense of humor with you for these laps. If you want to take a break or join us for just a few, feel free to hop on and off as much as you’d like! This event is to celebrate Idaho Gives, say hi to other non-profits, support a great cause, and embrace pedal-powered fun! If you want to go the extra mile, you could get your friends, family, and neighbors to pledge $ per lap you complete to help us raise $100k. Donations can be made on IdahoGives.org.
2. Traffic Calming & Pop-up Park
During the BBP Block Party, BBP’s Advocacy Committee will have installed a pop-up traffic calming demonstration in front of BBP & Downtown Hound. This pop-up park with chairs, plants, and refreshements will provite a comfortable space for pedestrians and bicyclists passing by/attending the block party. This temporary installation will also slow down cars in our neighborhood while we ride 100 laps for $100k! Stop by for a refreshment.
