Bike Business
Eddie is getting to participate in a bike program! The boys had a bicycle workshop this week. DOVE had 24 used bikes donated to them. A teacher came and taught Eddie and his friends how to put the donated bicycles together, how to grease the chains, how to adjust the brakes, rules of the road, arm signals, etc. The oldest boys are renting out their bikes to other people and charging them a fee; starting their own small business. Andy, being one of the youngest in the group, is on a points system. He is going to help with chores and business work around the club to earn points that will go towards his bicycle. If he is successful in helping around the Club and learning about business, he will be rewarded in several months by getting to keep one of the bikes. It will take a lot of hard work, but it is a great opportunity for him, and as you can see from the video- he is very excited!
