Bike Camp is back!

Bike Camp! is back and bigger than ever! We are excited to offer four sessions this year:

City Explorer’s Camp Sessions:

  • 8-11 year olds | June 18-22
  • 12-14 year olds | July 2-6 *No camp July 4
City Explorers Camp will focus on building bike comfort and skills, route creation, group riding, and longer rides. Campers will ride every day (weather dependent), and as much as 20 miles per day! Campers will bike to different field trips and volunteer opportunities across the city. This camp will include basic bike maintenance, such as how to fix a flat tire. This is a great camp for campers who want to see the city, visit new places, and build community. While campers outside of the age ranges will not be turned away, the activities at each session will be geared to those ages.

Bike Build Camp Sessions:

  • 8-11 year olds | June 25-29
  • 12-14 year olds | July 9-13
Bike Build Camp will focus on mechanics training and mastery of bike parts. Campers will build a bike from the frame up under the guidance of Gearin’ Up Bicycles. Campers will have the opportunity to go on multiple shorter rides during the session. This camp will include at least one hands-on visit to a local bike shop maintenance department. This is a great camp for campers who want to work with their hands, make a bike that they can keep, and explore a little too. Hours: 9 a.m. – 4 p.m., Monday – Friday Location: KIPP DC Shaw Campus, 421 P St. NW, Washington, D.C. 20001 Click here for all the details on Bike Camp!, including how to register.
