A community celebration focused on literacy, learning, and active play is coming to Madison this week as EmBe Education prepares to host its Bikes and Books Event on Thursday, May 14 from 5 to 6 p.m.
The event will take place at EmBe Education in Madison and will celebrate a recent donation of Strider bikes provided through the generosity of the Kiwanis Club and Berry Fast Bicycles.
Chris Klingbile is the Childcare Manager at EmBe in Madison.
In addition to the bike celebration, the event will also feature a Paper Pie book fair. Paper Pie is a children’s book company that partners with schools and organizations to provide educational and entertaining books for families and classrooms.
Klingbile explains how families can support classrooms through the Paper Pie book fair.
EmBe officials say the event is meant to be more than just a fundraiser. They hope it will serve as a community gathering where families can come together, support local children, and celebrate opportunities for learning and play.
The organization says community partnerships like those with the Kiwanis Club, Berry Fast Bicycles, and Paper Pie help create opportunities for children both inside and outside the classroom.
