2018 - A GREAT YEAR FOR CYCLE KINGSTON
2018 was a good but challenging year for Cycle Kingston. We - like many other non-profits in 2018 - did not receive federal funding to hire our always popular Cycling Ambassadors to run in-school and summer programs. We did, however, hire two staff for short-term positions to help us launch a new partnership with Queen's University Q-Camps, and together, delivered a Cycling Camp for youth. We also focused energy on developing our Gear UP! Recycled Bicycles social enterprise, now in its third year. We hired youth to work in the shop, and manages to sell 160 affordable, recycled bicycles - more than any year before.
Through our amazing team of volunteers, we handed out over 50 front lights during our Light My Ride campaign, and worked on various cycling and active transportation initiatives with Queen’s University, the City of Kingston (Active Transportation Master Plan; Vision Zero), and KFL&A Public Health.
We continue to promote cycling and cycling safety for everyone in Kingston. We could do more with your help!
