2013 MPN Bikeathon!

Welcome! 

We are excited to share that 
May 11, 2013 
is our MPN Bikeathon. 

There is no entry fee to participate and we have a gift for each rider. 

Please consider a minimum of $20 in pledges or flat donations. 

Here is some preliminary information, FAQ's are below:
 


FAQ's
My child doesn't ride a bike, trike, scooter or skates? Is there some way we can participate?
  • Contact Suzette Harbour directly at 805-441-six six eight eight. We believe every child can join in.

How many laps will they ride?
  • In the past we've seen riders pass the 110 lap mark. So, let your pledgers know, or collect a flat donation before the bikeathon.

How can I help with the event?
  • We have a need for people to help set up, take down, bring baked goods, sell drawing tickets at the registration table, donate prizes, and more. Contact Suzette Harbour directly at 805-441-six six eight eight to learn what job is a good fit for your interests.

Can students who aren't at our school ride?
  • We would like to evaluate on a case by case basis, so check in with Suzette.

Do you accept credit or debit cards?
  • We do. There is a $1.00 fee for each transaction. It is possible to do this online prior to, or onsite the day of, the event.

Where does the money go?

  •  Like all schools, public and private, funds are slimming every year, it seems. MPN is dedicated to providing high priority items and services for our kids' classrooms that wouldn't otherwise be paid for. One example is the cleaning of our bathrooms and classrooms. They must be cleaned a specified number of times per week, but because of our Independent Study model, that cost isn't covered in the administrative budget. Other costs that are unable to be covered include special Montessori supplies, Montessori teacher conferences, a number of consumable paper supplies and more.  As a California non-profit corporation, MPN's fiscal record is available to anyone who would like to review it. All of our proceeds go toward the kids. We have no paid staff and no office costs. We love our classroom experience and want to make it great!
