BIDDEFORD, Maine
On Saturday morning in Biddeford, the Biddeford Police Department and Apex Youth Connection teamed up to host a “Bike with a Cop” event.
Children of all ages were invited to go on a bike ride on the Eastern Trail, and there was a good turnout of kids mostly between the ages of four and seven. The kids rode their bikes with two Biddeford Police officers and a representative of Apex Youth Connection.
Apex Youth Connection, formerly the Community Bicycle Center in Biddeford, is a nonprofit youth organization that offers supportive mentors to kids, as well as after-school and summer programs for 5th to 12th graders. You can learn more about Apex Youth Connection by visiting its website.
