Invest in a child. Inspire a future.

Teams will be armed with wrenches and enthusiasm as they race to construct the ultimate human-powered, no-gasoline-needed rocket; children’s bicycles. You’ll be contributing memorable gifts to children who might otherwise never experience the joy of riding a bicycle.

At the completion of the event, either kids from the Boys & Girls Club of Boston will be present to accept the bikes, or a representative from the organization will deliver a speech on their behalf.

How it’ll work

• Upon arrival your group will be broken into teams (or predetermined teams)
• Each team will receive a set of 50 challenges which, when completed, earn your group coins to buy bikes and other materials at our ‘Bike Store’
• Work together as a team to maximize value for ‘our customer’ – the BGCB children!
• Each team will build 2 bikes to donate, complete with decorations, helmet and a signed card
• Help each other whenever possible while still making sure that your ‘department’ performs well
