Online Membership Drive!
Memberships are now available online! Support the growth of a bike-friendly community in Cochrane by renewing or purchasing your 2021 membership. As we work with stakeholders to develop trails and improve bicycle connectivity, one of the questions we are asked every time is how many people we represent. If nothing else, membership in Bike Cochrane gives us a mandate to advocate on your behalf. Online membership is here: https://bike-cochrane.square.site/#RLxBwl

Volunteer Positions Available
Communication Coordinator – Do you ever read these newsletters and think “Oh man, I could write better than that!” Well, we probably agree! Still looking for some help to ensure that the Bike Cochrane membership stays informed with regular updates of our progress and upcoming events.
Bike Park Manager – You may have seen the fencing went up around the LaunchPad Bike Park in October. We have had questions about whether the park can open on snow free days, and when in the spring it might be open again more regularly. Right now, we are still looking for a volunteer who can help coordinate the management of the park. We need an owner in this role or it will be challenging to keep the park open through changing weather.
Thank you for your continued support!
