Community Involvement
We believe in giving back to the community that also supports us. Since the Lumberyard Bike Park has been operating, we’ve donated time with a mobile skills course (usually at Sunday Parkways events), worked with the Community Cycling Center as well as donated product and gift certificates to school auctions to help them increase their fundraising.
Some of the school fundraisers we’ve contributed to include:
- Jacob Wismer Elementary
- The International School
- The Madeline School
- Vernon School PTA
- Grass Valley Elementary
- Grace Lutheran School
- Dear Creek Elementary
- Laurelhurst School
- Sojourner School
- Glencoe School
- Creative Science School
- Bridger School
- Holy Family School
- da Vinci Arts Middle School
- Atkinson Elementary
- Holy Cross Catholic School
- Cedar Park Middle School
- Pacific Crest Community School
- Sabin School
- Holcomb Elementary
- Creative Science School
- Stafford Primary School
- Alameda Elementary School

We’ve also supported the following groups and institutions:

- Banfield Charitable Trust
- Rose City Nazarene
- Cascade AIDS Project
- Pixie Project
- Sherwood Regional Family YMCA
- Sun Community-Schools
…just to name a few.
Of course, we love riding bikes, so we have supported local mountain bike advocacy efforts since our inception. Groups we support include the Northwest Trail Alliance, Evergreen Mountain Bike Alliance, Hood River Area Trail Stewards, and Friends of Gateway Green.
Also, one of our co-founders is serving on the committee for the City of Portland’s Off-Road Cycling Master Plan. The other co-founder is serving on the board for Madison South Neighborhood Association.
