Upcoming Events

The Bike Rodeo is not just an event; it’s a movement towards creating a more inclusive, healthy, and sustainable community through the joy of cycling. Youth Development United is dedicated to increasing access to cycling in Chester, Eddystone, and Upland, recognizing it as a life sport that offers health benefits across all ages and an eco-friendly way to travel. With over 250 donated bicycles tuned and given away, the creation of three bike libraries, and the success of three previous Bike Rodeos, we’re geared up to make this event our best yet.

These events are designed to encourage young people to engage with nature and understand the impact they can have on environmental conservation. It’s a straightforward opportunity for hands-on learning and contributing to our community’s ecological wellbeing. Join us to make a difference and learn more about our environment.

This event is not just about planting trees; it’s about sowing the seeds of sustainability and responsibility in the hearts and minds of our younger generation. Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., with its formidable ability to create ripple effects of positive change, will lead us in employing select strategies that amplify our collective impact. We aim to prioritize activities that not only improve and protect our environment but also promote the adoption of sustainable practices on a larger scale. Gather with us for a day of action, learning, and community building. By planting trees together, we are not only enhancing our local environment but also fostering a culture of environmental stewardship among our youth. This Earth Day, let’s come together to make a significant, lasting impact, demonstrating the power of community and collaboration in protecting and preserving our planet for generations to come.

Join us at the lush expanses of William Penn Park in Chester on April 20th, starting at 9 AM, for a day filled with earth-friendly activities. Whether you’re a seasoned gardener or new to the world of horticulture, this event offers a unique opportunity to make a tangible impact on our planet, learn about local flora, and connect with fellow nature enthusiasts. Don’t miss out on this chance to contribute to a greener tomorrow, foster community ties, and celebrate the beauty of our earth. Bring your friends, family, and enthusiasm for planting the seeds of change. Together, we can make a difference!
