Safe Streets Tour and Rolling Bike Summit
SC Bike Summit - Columbia
Successes include trained Safe Streets ambassadors.
We trained over 75 ambassadors across the state in our unique Safe Streets Save Lives bike safety and law curriculum, specific to our state, and we can't help but feel a deep sense of accomplishment. Each ambassador was selected based on their commitment to reteach this in their city/town, which means our campaign has what it takes for lasting effect. 

Traveling to 6 cities in 6 days, we were able to meet and engage with an incredibly diverse group of people that need this curriculum for a wide variety of audiences.  Hearing their stories, and how they intended to use this in their communities, was the highlight of the trip.
