“THANK YOU so much for White Clay Bicycle Club’s continued, generous support of our work,” said League of American Bicyclists Director of Membership & Development Kevin Dekkinga. “Whether you prefer roads or trails, paved or gravel, know that your support fuels our work to make bicycling safer, more fun and accessible to all.”
Bike Newark Treasurer Karl Hassler said the WCBC grant “capped off a wholly extraordinary Bike Week 2023 that included our announcement from the League” of Newark as silver-level Bicycle Friendly Community.”
Nominations by Club members for 2024 award recipients will be accepted in January 2024.
