Greetings Friends and Family!
With the Thanksgiving holiday quickly approaching, please accept our warmest thanks. You have joined us on the journey to get more kids on bikes in New Jersey and our community is growing stronger every day!
It seems like yesterday that we "wished they had this when we were in school". Thanks to the tremendous effort of sponsors, coaches, students, families, partners and league staff, today we are thankful for a successful inaugural season. We are also completely blown away by the league's growth as we enter season two. We have already surpassed student registrations from the entire first season, and we have over 180 registered coaches. We currently have 2 coaches for every 3 registered students. Wow!
Coaches are the backbone of the league, and ours have been working hard to advance their certifications in the off season. Special thanks to Collier Pacers Head Coach and Principal of Collier High School, Mr. Pablo Samuel, for hosting four training days at the school this year. Over 100 coaches attended NICA training at Collier, and we look forward to holding a race on the campus in years to come!
Thank you again for following NJ NICA news and helping us get #morekidsonbikes in New Jersey. #NJNICARocks #NJShredz #NJGirlsRock
Wishing you a wonderful holiday weekend filled with joy and bike rides,
Ken & The NICA NJ Staff
PS - Small Business Saturday is this weekend. Please consider supporting your local bike shop, on Saturday and the rest of the year too! Our community really depends on it!
