Description

CicLAvia is a 501(c)(3) non-profit that catalyzes vibrant public spaces, active transportation, and good health through car-free streets. CicLAvia engages with people to transform our relationship with our communities and with each other.

Join us on Sunday, May 19 (rain or shine!), as we transform the streets of Wilmington into a public park for the day. Jog, ride, bike, skate, run, walk, skateboard, spectate, and enjoy the route however you want. Our routes are welcoming to people of all ages and abilities! A CicLAmini is a more pedestrian-oriented experience featuring activities sprinkled along the entire 1-2 mile open street event. Expect things like self-guided walking tours, scavenger hunts, street games, local business engagements, and art and cultural activities for all ages.

Hub Volunteers assist with activities at the hubs. These activities include:

  • Providing information to CicLAvia participants
  • Asking participants to dismount, slow down, or follow other traffic instructions related to hubs
  • Assisting Hub Staff with hub setup, breakdown, and maintenance
  • Enrolling participants in our newsletter and conducting CicLAvia's participant survey

We also group volunteer opportunities! Our Adopt-An-Intersection Program is a great way for non-profits, community groups, school clubs, and teams (of 4 or more people) to volunteer together on the CicLAvia route.

Volunteer groups will be assigned a specific intersection, and guide participant traffic at car crossings, pedestrian crossings, and dismount zones. While volunteering, groups can promote their group to the thousands of CicLAvia participants.
