On Saturday, October 5, Pelican State Credit Union hosted its annual FREE Kids Bike Race in Monroe.
Pelican was excited to bring this much-loved youth event to the Monroe community once again this year. Seeing each of the 38 racers' smiles as they completed the track and the memories created by the families made for a memorable event.
Petey the Pelican and the rest of the Pelican team welcomed each racer with a Bike Race t-shirt and a goody bag.
Pelican kept the fun going by giving away door prizes for the racers and their parents. Each racer also received an exclusive Petey Racer Medal to celebrate everyone being a winner!
The team is grateful to the local sponsors who helped make the event unforgettable—Surge Entertainment by Drew Brees, Lyfe Skills Collaboration, Serving with a Purpose, Skatetown 165, Twin City BMX, Tower Place of Monroe, NELA Children's Museum at Forsthye Park, Ouachita Parish Public Library's Carver-McDonald Branch, Queens of Tomorrow, Jena's Professional Hair Care, Unitech Training Academy - West Monroe Campus, Texas Roadhouse, and Monroe Fire Department.
