If you have a child’s bike - outgrown, broken or simply not used - you’re invited to make that bike part of a UD student project called “Wheels for Kids.” For the ninth year, UD student volunteers are collecting children’s bikes and meeting on Saturdays in February and March to completely refurbish them and make them safe. On April 10, the bikes will be distributed to children of Dayton families who could not otherwise afford safe and reliable bikes. The annual “Wheels for Kids” event will also provide children with helmets and lessons on bike safety and maintenance.
We need as many bikes as possible and are collecting them now! Remember, we can use even parts of bikes, but are interested only in bikes with a wheel diameter less than 26 inches.
Please send an email to wheels4kids.ud@gmail.com or call 229-4642 with your name and number of bikes you plan to donate. We will then contact you to arrange drop-off or pick-up.

This program is free and open to the public and sponsored by the City of Oakwood, Oakwood Environmental Committee and the Oakwood Community Center. Refreshments will be served. For further information, please call Carol Collins at the Oakwood Community Center at 298-0775.

Kickball is a wonderful way to introduce your child(ren) to organized sports. Kickball is fun, fast moving, and exciting. Designed especially for children age 5 - grade 1. Emphasis is on education, sportsmanship, and teamwork. No league or individual standings or statistics will be maintained. Space is limited and volunteer coaches are needed.
