Seeking Board Members for Bike The Woodlands

Bike The Woodlands Coalition members and board members pose at the 2021 Independence Day Parade.

Since 2009, Bike the Woodlands Coalition has worked to build a better community through bicycling. We've advocated for bicycle and pedestrian safety at local, state, and federal levels; participated in community-wide events like the annual Fourth of July Parade; organized volunteer efforts like donating disused bicycles to people in need; and hosted our own rides and socials to celebrate the joy of bicycling. We've done great things thanks to our volunteer board of directors, whose creative ideas and hard work have powered our growth over the past decade.

Now, we're seeking new board members with a passion for creating a better community through cycling! Join our enthusiastic team as we create meaningful community events and advocate for improved infrastructure and safety. The application deadline is Monday, September 20, 2021. 

Please feel free to share this information with anyone who you think would be interested in joining our work. Thanks in advance for considering!

We encourage all interested persons to apply. Interested persons should send an email to info@bikethewoodlands.org and let us know:

  • Why do you think you would be a good fit for the BTWC board?

  • What is your connection with cycling?

  • Do you have any connections with groups or individuals in the community that may be helpful for bicycle advocacy?

  • Do you have any questions for us?

Application emails are due by 6 PM on Monday, September 20, 2021.
