“The Blue-Tailed Skinks Kids MTB Club is a mountain bike club centered on getting kids in kindergarten through 5th grade out on the trails. We are based in Western Sonoma County. We aim to ensure that the rides offer a fun, supportive and inclusive atmosphere. If you’d like to come out for a ride, please reach out for details“ (Blue-Tailed Skinks 2022).
“Ives Pool is run by Western Sonoma County Swimmers, a nonprofit organization that works closely with the City of Sebastopol. Board members are volunteers and are elected every two years” (Ives Pool 2024).
“Back in 1978, on Christmas Eve, a group of musically-minded souls from the hills surrounding Occidental, California gathered around a campfire in the center of town to sing carols. We didn’t want to go home, so we started a choir.
Through the decades the choir has solidified its reputation for excellence by producing unique concert experiences that combine humor, storytelling, poetry, varied instrumental accompaniment, and an off-the-beaten-path repertoire” (Occidental Community Choir 2024).
“The Sonoma County Bicycle Coalition promotes healthy and safe riding for everyone through advocacy and education.
Our vision: riding a bicycle becomes an everyday activity for transportation, recreation and exercise throughout Sonoma County for everyone. Bicycling is considered a standard form of transportation by local governments and safe transportation options for bicycle riders are always included in decision-making. As a result, the people of Sonoma County enjoy healthier lifestyles, a cleaner environment and safe cycling choices” (Sonoma County Bicycle Coalition 2024).
“The Wente 8-hour mountain bike race is far beyond just your typical relay event. It is a full 3-day weekend expedition for your friends and family in one of the most magical places on earth: Wente Scout Reservation.
This team and solo mountain bike race fills very fast because it is limited to just 550 competitors. In reality, the scale of the event is larger than this because racers come with friends and family. It’s what makes this experience so special.
Wente Scout Reservation plays host to thousands of scouts each year and introduces a large portion of them to the joy of mountain biking. The Wente 8-Hour MTB Relay Race does a lot to contribute to the further development of this program, and in its way, the future mountain bikers of America. Whether you’ve been a part of Wente’s regular programming, or have never been exposed to the world of scouting, you’re in for a great treat during this weekend” (Race Wenty, Bike Monkey 2024).
