This event is a culmination of our year's efforts, aimed at bringing together students from all 31 elementary Bike Clubs to celebrate their achievements and enjoy a rewarding field trip. The journey begins at the USA BMX Headquarters and finishes at the Gathering Place, promising an exciting adventure.
Thanks to the generous support from Tulsa Public Schools, Humble Sons Bike Company, USA BMX, Gathering Place, Two Men and a Truck, Tulsa Police Department, Tulsa River Parks, among others, participants will have the unique opportunity to connect with fellow Bike Club members, watch an exhilarating BMX demonstration, enjoy a 4.3-mile ride through downtown and River Park trails, and explore the Gathering Place.
Gathering Place visit: Once students arrive from their 4.3-mile ride from USA BMX utilizing city streets and River Park trails, they will enjoy lunch at Reading Tree hillside near Williams Lodge. Afterwards, students will have free time to explore the Chapman Adventure Playground – In this five-acre kingdom, kids can let their imaginations run wild by exploring the playground’s signature towers, slides, climbing features, play gardens and more. After playtime is over, students will meet back at the Williams Lodge for a treat before returning to school.
