The Bicycle Tree will be helping to provide a bicycle valet at Outpost Fest on Saturday, November 12th. Visitors to this music festival will be able to park their bikes with us and not worry about their bikes getting stolen. We will also be performing outreach to let people know about the services we offer. We will begin setting up our station at 12:15 pm. We will remain until the last bikes are picked up after the event ends; we should be done before midnight.

Mission Statement
We equitably support bicyclists and create healthy bicycle-friendly communities through activities, advocacy, and education.
Description
The Bicycle Tree is a nonprofit community bicycle center. We provide affordable resources for people who ride bikes. We offer the following programs:
- Maintenance workshops: participants bring their bikes and learn to repair and maintain them, using the facility's tools and equipment and receiving the assistance of mostly volunteer mechanics.
- Wrench and Ride: an eight-week program open to youth ages 13-18 in which participants learn about bicycle maintenance and bike safety. Each student then selects a donated used bike that they overhaul from top to bottom. We go on a bike ride together, and they take their refurbished bike home along with a helmet, lock, and lights.
- Bicycle donations: we refurbish donated used bikes that we then give to low-income individuals in partnership with shelters and other assistance programs. A helmet, lock, and lights are included with each bicycle.
- Sales of bikes and parts: We help fund our programs through the sale of donated used bikes and parts and a limited selection of new parts and materials.
