Completed the bike rodeo with a whopping 3 students! unfortunate the way it turned out but i felt we did everything we could to make it a successful event.The 3 kids that did participate seemed to have some fun and learned a few things about road safety. It was a good learning experience for to understand the amount of work that has to go into putting on a community event like this and unfortunately i also realized it doesn't always work out as it is suppose to! Busy week coming up with 4 exams and a paper due then its time for summer!
- Cheers Brian!

DBR- Email received April 7th at 330pm from Dufferin substitute principle.
Hi Sam,

> I've been speaking with grade 5 teachers and it appears that we have very few students participating in the event which is supposed to be tomorrow at 10:30. Ms Dalsin has a conflict with the time as she has the math coordinator coming in. Ms Eacrett has bus students who are not able to bring in their bikes and Ms. Geoghegan only has a handful of grade 5's. My worry is that we won't have enough interest tomorrow and that we may not be making the best of your time. Thoughts?

I let her know that we are willing to work with whatever kids show up and she has agreed to let us continue!

Just received a very interesting email form the apparent substitute principle of Dufferin Elementary Krista Halland saying there might not be many kids participating. This is quite unfortunate for us as Tyson, Steven, and I have all put in time to get this all organized! It seemed like she may have just found out that this is taking place but she said its still a go, so that is good news for us! hopefully we have a decent turn out because we have printed of 35 certificates! Tomorrow will be a busy day for me as i have a job interview with statistics Canada at 9am then the bike rodeo at 10 and then after that i am on my way to Penticton to see my family and do some studying for the weekend! should be fun.
DBR #8
Today we picked up the certificates for the kids as well printed some safety tip forms instructing them to always wear a helmet and obey the rules of the road!
Also finished up all my classes today, all that is left is final exams next week and the bike rodeo tomorrow. Ready for summer!

Today we found a really good safety poster. hopefully going to print it off so we can hand it out to the kids on the 8th and give them a brief lesson on bike safety!

Completion certificates look great! (thanks to Steve and Tyson) now they are being sent to Brian to be printed off. Almost ready to go for April 8th.

Mike emailed back and said he has decided that grade 5's will take part in the bike rodeo and there will be between 30-40 of them! this should be interesting...now it is time to print off the certificates for these kids!
