a. Enter the following information in a new Word document. Leave a blank line between paragraphs.
Celebrate Bicycling!
May is traditionally National Bike Month, so take out your bicycle, tune it up and get a breath of fresh air! And plan to take part in Celebrate Bikes Sunday on 5/8 to learn about the benefits of bike riding.
Businesses and organizations participating in the event are all “related to biking in Westbrook and most of them are involved in the development of the trail system” says event director Mary Jo Miller.
As part of the activities on this day, the Westbrook Parks and Recreations Department is sponsoring a bike ride from the West Avenue YMCA to the Main Street Park beginning at 11am.
At the end of the bike ride, the riders are encouraged to stay for the fun and informative activities in the park. Activities include a bike safety program, entertainment, and food booths. The Safe Route to School program will work with parents and children to find the safest route to either walk or bike to school. Registration is free and available by calling (603) 555-1313, visiting the YMCA during regular business hours or beginning at 10am on Sunday at the YMCA.
