St. Jude Trike-A-Thon program in Colts Neck

The Colts Neck Reformed Church Nursery School will join thousands of pre-schools, daycares and other groups across the country insponsoring a St. Jude Trike-A-Thon event during the week April 22, 2013 to benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital®, one of the world’s premier pediatric cancer research centers. The week-long event teaches bike and riding-toy safety lessons using interactive stories featuring characters, Bikewell Bear® and Pedals the Bunny®. At the end of St. Jude Trike-A-Thon week, students will bring their tricycles to school to practice their newly learned safety lessons. 

This is the 8th year that The Colts Neck Reformed Church Nursery School has held the St. Jude Trike-A-Thon program. The Colts Neck Reformed Church Nursery School has raised more than $4,000 since it began in 2006.

 “We challenge family and supporters of The Colts Neck Reformed Church Nursery School to join us in helping to teach our kids about riding safety while raising funds for St. Jude,” said Stacey Savage event coordinator. “I’m proud our kids are able to help give hope to thousands of children battling cancer and other deadly diseases at St. Jude.”
