Bike Board Members, I vaguely remember Jonathan Rosenbaum mentioning the My Bikes program. Today, Mmy wife recommended that I send this to the Bike Board in case you wish to be involved or are involved in this. Please consider attending the My Bike Program event that creates adaptive bikes for children and adolescents.
Thanks, ~Derek

Hello clinical team,
I would like to take a minute to introduce you to an upcoming opportunity that HealthSouth MountainView has been given, in assisting pediatric and adolescents with special needs to receive individually custom/adapted bicycles through a program offered by Variety, the children's charity.
The "My Bike" program provides bicycles to qualifying families and information is shared on the attached fact sheet. The program has been so successful in PA, that the "My Bike" program has now been launched in West Virginia. HealthSouth MountainView is looking forward to presenting an in-service about this program at the date/time indicated on the attached flyer.
In addition as a recognized local provider of Inpatient and Outpatient Pediatric rehabilitation, we hope to become a local "fitting" location for children who will be receiving these adapted bicycles.
PLEASE encourage pediatric team members, out-patient staff and all case managers to attend this in-service to learn more about how easy it is to provide the joy of recreation to children with special needs in West Virginia.
