2021 BMX Pro For A Week Summer Camp Wrap-Up

We just wrapped up another successful summer of our BMX Pro for a Week Camp. Big thanks to Tyler and Kas of San Diego BMX for making it so easy to work with them and to run the entire 6 weeks at their track. They have invested greatly in improvements and it shows. San Diego BMX also generously donated two 1 year complimentary USA BMX Memberships to our campers each week!

We are also grateful to Haro, Source BMX, WD-40, 100%, ODI, Tioga, Dvide, Bill and James Barrowcliff for preparing a custom award for our camper of the week and shipping to the U.S.A. from the U.K. for presentation, and Toby Wells Foundation for continuing to underwrite many of our amenities while supporting our grassroots efforts of getting kids outside and on bikes.

Our growth has been exponential and we owe much of that to our campers! Yes, we have more than a 85% retention rate of campers and they have helped us in spreading the word by bringing siblings, cousins, friends and neighbors. We have had the most successful year to-date. So, we had to step up the giveaways and other fun activities to thank our regulars and our newcomers. In addition to shirts, hats, posters, tires, grips, and 100% jerseys and pants from our team co-sponsors, we also gifted a number of brand new Haro bikes. Toby Wells Foundation, a local non-profit committed to helping youth and animals while honoring Toby Wells, sponsored visits from the Kona Ice truck to keep the kids cool with a sweet treat, along with sponsoring our Character Counts Awards to encourage positive behavior in campers, for example, helping and encouraging others, being a good listener and most improved. On the Spot Photography made a trip out weekly to capture individual photos of our campers that were printed and placed into frames for pick up on Friday. And, to top it off we wrapped up the last day with a pizza party! So many great things!

I am grateful to our team of coaches most notably, Rylinde, Maddie, Greyson, Isaiah, Aiden and Sacha for showing up and giving it what they’ve got to ensure a positive experience for our campers. Also, thankful that we kept all our kids safe and healthy.

BMX Pro for a Week Spring Break Camp 2021

Our BMX Pro for a Week Spring Break Camp kicks off Monday, April 12 – 16, at San Diego BMX daily from 9:00am to 3:00pm. We cover the full 101 of BMX Race, our campers learn about bike and street safety, how to conduct a bike safety check, technical skills on and off the track, gates and for those interested, simulated races.

We have partnered with both the CDC and the American Camp Association to develop protocols to keep our campers safe and healthy. Campers have temperature checks on arrival and any camper with a temperature of 100 or greater will not be admitted to camp. We respectfully ask parents to KEEP SICK CHILDREN HOME. We do our best to socially distance campers. We have additional hand washing stations and hand sanitizer available everywhere at camp. We have successfully run 10 weeks of camp with ALL kids staying healthy.

In light of the craziness we have all been living through this past year, experts are sharing more than ever that physical activity is vital to our children’s wellbeing, allows our children to have a better outlook on life by building confidence, managing anxiety and depression, and increasing self esteem and cognitive skills. Our team is geared up and ready to deliver a fun filled week for our campers with loads of new giveaways and prizes. Fee is $300 per camper or $250 for siblings.

Summer Camp Wrap-Up

Grateful to have wrapped up our Haro BMX Pro for a Week Summer camp 2020 Season. We had no idea what to expect. This entire year has been defined by uncertainty. However, we partnered earlier this year in anticipation of challenges with both the CDC and American Camp Association to develop specific protocols to host camp while also keeping campers safe and healthy. I’m happy to report we did just that! We successfully ran 7 weeks of Haro BMX Pro for a Week camp straight at San Diego BMX. Our campers and their parents were ecstatic they could get out for fresh air and exercise. We did it all without a single Covid incident. Thankful to our team, Tyler and Kasandra Brown of San Diego BMX and our campers’ parents for their trust in us. This summer wasn’t so bad after all. Stay-tuned as we’re partnering with San Diego BMX on a Beginner’s League and other Fall programming to be announced soon. Cheers.

Oklahoma / Phoenix

Racing is starting back up in the US after the coronavirus lock down, with USA BMX holding Nationals in Oklahoma two weeks ago while this past weekend was the Desert Classic in Phoenix, Arizona.

Our 15x Peter Choat has been spending some time in Texas doing camps and riding daily during this down time from racing and went into Oklahoma feeling good, coming away with the win all three days. Peter skipped Phoenix but heads out to South Carolina next weekend for the Carolina Nationals.

The rest of the Team went to Phoenix and put in a good showing with Derin Merten and Brooke Craft scoring two podiums and Connor Eaton four podiums. Maddie Desentis in her first event of the year – due to injury on top of the lock down – came away with a handful of podiums as well.

In all, a great few weeks of racing for our Team and we will all be present in Lemoore on July 10-12 for the Summer Classic Nationals. We are looking forward to the easing of quarantine orders so we can update our schedules with more Nationals.

As always, thanks to all of our team sponsors for supporting our racing efforts.
