You’ve heard of Take Your Child to Work Day, but have you heard about Take a Kid Mountain Biking Day?

Take a Kid Mountain Biking Day is an annual celebration that strives to encourage communities around the world to join together and ride mountain bikes with youth. Last year, Take a Kid had more than 13,000 participants at hundreds of events across the globe.

Besides being good, healthy fun, the goal is to develop a connection between kids and the natural world around them.

For many years, Cascade has helped host a day on the trails with adults and kids of the  Trips for Kids program and the Evergreen Bike Alliance.

This year's event will include trail riding, an obstacle course for the little ones, an exciting jump show from local and pro riders, a barbecue, and tons of prizes!

Bring your kids, your neighbor’s kids, or your friends with kids and come ride bikes on the trails with us.

Take a Kid Mountain Biking Day will take place Saturday, Oct. 6, from  10 a.m. until  3 p.m. at Duthie Hill Park in Issaquah.

All ages are welcome. Register today!

We could also use some volunteer help.
