Conclude the Event

Conclude the event by tallying the score sheets, awarding simple prizes to the winner. This can be stickers or other goodies provided by the bike shop or police department, or another prize like a small bag of candy.

Then, cap off your bike rodeo with ice cream or another treat for all the participants. Be sure to include yourself and your volunteers.

As a postscript, a week or two after the event, send thank-you notes to your helpers and the bike shop/police for their assistant. Include a photo or two of the kids having fun if at all possible. This feel-good gesture will make them very likely to agree to help again if asked.
