HopOn Abbotsford p/b SJB Bears (Autumn)

HopOn Abbotsford, presented by St. John Brebeuf Bears

Hello! I’m Martin Lavrik, and over the past seven seasons, my team of HopOn Instructors and I have enjoyed helping kids in the Abbotsford area build confidence, friends, and an appreciation for the challenges of outdoor exercise.

Our 2024 spring program is for riders with skill levels 5+ (ages 13-18). Each session includes a skill, a game, and a bike ride in the community. Participants must supply their bicycles and helmets. *This program is only available for students enrolled at St. John Brebeuf.
