Call out for Volunteers – Lead a workshop for our Youth Leadership Club
Do you have a passion for mountain biking and/or playing in the local forests, mountains, oceans, dirt mounds, concrete bowls, or various other outdoor extreme adventure zones?
Here is THE OPPORTUNITY OF A LIFETIME to share your experience, skills, and age-old (but not “old” old?) wisdom with an amazing group of teenagers.
The TFK Youth Leadership Club targets youth ages 13-17 with an interest in developing their biking skills, and gaining related training and volunteer experience. The program is centered around developing new skills and building self-esteem in a fun and supportive environment.
Past workshops have included:
- Intro to downhill riding (with various workshops focusing on skills such as body positioning, cornering, and line choice)
- Intro to trials
- Basic Bike Mechanics
- Sport Nutrition
- Action photography & photo shoot
We are open to all sorts of new ideas related to biking, outdoor education, and personal development. Please contact us with your ideas to lead a workshop, and/or alternatively volunteer to SUPPORT a workshop. There are many ways to get involved and we’d love to hear from you!
