Shannon Pump Track 4 Skilled Rural Kids

$1,500 of $10,000 goal
Given by 10 generous donors in around 6 months

Rural Town Pump Track for active kids!

Shannon, Manawatu-Wanganui

Hey! We have so many talented kids in our rural town with limited resources. A bike pump track would be an asset to our kids in Shannon. Our kids ride freely around town and have great biking skills. It would be awesome to take these skills to another level providing a pump track in our town. The closest track is Foxton Beach or Levin which is a 20 minute drive

If you are interested in donating to get this off the ground we would appreciate your generosity! There is nothing more satisfying these days than to see active children off devices! This is the aim having a pump track in town and upskilling kids biking skills.

At this stage, I am now liaising with HDC for a perfect spot for the pump track. If I don't manage to meet my goal, funds raised will be put into the Shannon Outdoor Resource Trust that myself and another have set up for the creation of the pump track.

Myself and another awesome mother have created the Trust to secure funding for the pump track. I am a mother of a very active and keen rider! We go out of town upto 4 times a week for him to grind on the pump tracks other towns have to offer..

Use of funds

All of the donated money will go towards materials, machine hireage, permits.

Council Met Up  9 June 2022

Kia Ora all, just an update I have met with a representative from HDC today with a plan moving forward for 2 possible spots for the pump track! This is awesome progress for us. The council are in support of a project like this and we hope to liaise in the next couple of months for plans to be put forth to the long term plan for Shannon.

I have to be honest I would like to see the pump track develop faster than the next 3 years so a lot of work to be done moving forward. Thank you for your support so far. Please share and encourage others to donate as little as $1.00 per person to get to our fundraising goal.
