Buffalo Grove Environmental Action Team

Environmental Action Team Global Work Party

The Buffalo Grove Environmental Action Team is recycling cycles and more! The group, a Buffalo Grove Park District committee, will host a bike-oriented Global Work Party at the Buffalo Grove Farmer's Market on Sunday, October 10, from 7:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.

In addition to an exhilarating hands-on/feet-on bike energy conversion demonstration, in which people can participate, the event will also feature an informative bike clinic, a mechanic from a local bike shop, and members of the League of Illinois Bicyclists and local bike clubs will be on hand to pass out free bike maps and discuss rides and routes. Anyone that has a bike that they are no longer using is encouraged to bring it to donate it to the Working Bikes Cooperative.

Get your bike out of the garage and back on the road or donate it to a great charity! For more information, contact Wendy Frank at (847) 478-1653 wendabilities@gmail.com.
