Bicycle Tour
Saturday, May 18, 2019
AWEĀY partnered with Franklinton Cycle Works and Franklinton Preparatory Academy to purchase bikes for 38 high school students to ride 20 miles on the “Little Miami Scenic Trail” located near Xenia Ohio. The students met with instructors from Antioch College and the Glen Helen Ecology Institute who discussed the relation of local ecology to jobs.

FRANKLINTON CYCLE WORKS
Students are donated free, refurbished bikes in beautiful, natural scenery where professors, educators, and/or career specialists conduct brief lessons to highlight ecological careers and encourage healthy recreational pursuits.
Building bikes – Building connections – Building a community
“A community bicycle shop is different from a regular bicycle shop. Around here, bike repair is a cooperative effort rather than a way to make money. What we’re doing isn’t just about building bikes. It’s about building relationships and bringing a community together. Our shop space, stands, and tools are available free of cost for anyone who wants to work on his or her bike. And volunteer mechanics are on hand to share their knowledge and experience.”

ABOUT FRANKLINTON PREPARATORY ACADEMY

Located in the heart of Franklinton, FPA is committed to developing trusting relationships within and among the members of our learning community.
