Civic Commons Park is located at 2000 O'Neil Ave. at the intersection of O'Neil and 20th Street.

I'd like to host a breakfast station. What do I need to do?

Businesses and organizations that wish to hold breakfast stations are welcome to participate and be listed on the Bike to Work Day website.

Those that wish to host should plan on providing free breakfast or similar food items to Bike to Work Day participants. Breakfast stations must be staffed and in a publicly-accessible location.
