Do you want to help create a better community for bicycling in your city? Join advocates from your area and guests from the Cascade Bicycle Club to count bicyclists and for a series of workshops on effective advocacy.
Help Make Bicyling Count
Last fall, Cascade was contracted by the Washington State DOT to conduct the first statewide counts of bicyclists in pedestrians. The report is here. A big thank you to the more than 150 volunteers who worked hard on this project!
This year's bicycle and pedestrian counts will be held from Sept. 29-October 1. We can only conduct counts if enough people sign up in your area. To sign up for an easy volunteer shift, clickhere. If you can help coordinate the project and recruit more volunteers in your area, email us.
Advocacy Workshops Coming Your Way
Cascade will travel to five cities throughout the state this fall to meet with local bicyclists. We will work together with local advocates to build capacity within the state's thriving bicycle movement. Workshops may include:
Effective Earned Media and Letter to the Editor Campaigns
Bicycle Master Plans, Complete Streets and Universal Design
Crunching the Numbers: Using Counts and Crash Data to Improve Conditions for Bicycling
Working With Elected Officials… and Holding Them Accountable
Winning Local Campaigns for Bicyclists
We will travel to the five cities around the state with the most signups. Do you want to see better bicycling in your city?
Thank you for all you do to advocate for bicycling.
