Summer Bike Camp

Bike Camp Registration Scholarships General Information

Red Shed Bike Camp Registration is now open!!

Do you have a kiddo between ages 8-13 who:

  • wants to bike but doesn’t know how?
  • loves to bike and wants to improve their skills?
  • wants to hang out for a week in the great outdoors on the beautiful Woonasquatucket River Greenway?

Join Summer Bike Camp!

At Red Shed Bike Camp, kids ages 8-13 spend a fun-filled week in the summer exploring the watershed on two wheels! Through the week, campers enjoy daily bike rides. They also learn safe riding skills, basic bike maintenance, and watershed stewardship. After a bike-filled week at camp, our campers leave with the freedom and independence of riding a bike safely and confidently, a new way to enjoy the natural beauty along the Greenway, and a sense of pride from learning new skills. The Red Shed offers special scholarships to qualified campers, providing access for all no matter their income.

Summer Bike Camp runs for 7 weeks each summer. Each year, summer bike camp sessions start early July and run to mid-August. Camp runs Monday-Friday from 9am-3pm in Riverside Park at the Red Shed.
