Throughout the three-week tour, we will be visiting schools, community centers, farms, nature preserves, and local businesses, engaging people of all ages in a discussion of sustainability. The tour provides amazing opportunities for us to deepen our understanding of the complex environmental issues that we teach about on Catalina and use that knowledge to design programs that are meaningful and relevant to the lives of our students.
We will be posting tour updates on our blog and hope that you follow us on our journey. Some blog highlights to look out for include:
~ Tips on making this holiday season a sustainable one
~ 10 things you can do to give back to your community
~ Links to farmer’s markets and other community events
~ Information on current environmental topics including alternative energy, sustainable transportation, wildlife conservation and more!
Embarking on this journey is no easy task. In addition to the physical challenges we’ll face in riding our bikes from Los Angeles to San Francisco, there are many logistics associated with outfitting, housing, and feeding 15 cyclists. The tour relies on support from friends, family, businesses and the schools we visit. Support can be in the form of food, housing, gear or monetary donations.
Thank you for your time and support. This journey wouldn't be possible without the love and dedication of family and friends. Check the blog for updates and
pictures along our journey!
14 days until we hit the road!
