BEAR TRACKS WEEKLY NEWS & UPDATES
Monday, February 12, 2018
|
New bicycle racks were installed this month courtesy of a grant from the City of Redmond which we applied for and were awarded this fall. Students are encouraged
to use either the racks by the gym entrance or the new ones near the flagpole.
As always, remember to lock your bicycle, wear a helmet, and walk your bike when on the sidewalk in front of the building.
Thank you Go Redmond for the new bike racks!
