Dublin Elementary School was chosen by the City of Dublin to represent us in the annual Walk ‘n Roll competition with Livermore, Pleasanton, and San Ramon to see which City has the most students willing to reduce vehicle trips by riding their bikes and walking to school.The friendly competition will take place throughout the month of October. Councilmember Don Biddle and I joined the Dublin Police Services to present at a special assembly. Students were told of all of the positives of riding or walking to school, including the fact that it will make them physically fit, it helps the environment, and makes for a safer entrance/exit to school. In addition, they can earn prizes donated by Dublin Cyclery and have a great time in the process.There are also several businesses and public agencies throughout the Tri-Valley competing in the adult competition. Winners will be announced in mid-November.
