The 2023 Adams County Heritage Festival will feature a children’s bike parade and community walk along the Biser Trail in Rec Park. The whole day is packed with entertainment and wonderful food, making it a great community unity event. Bike decorating starts at 12:30 backstage, or you can decorate your bike at home. Helmets are required, and riders receive a free can of Lucky Leaf apple juice, courtesy of Knouse Foods, just for wearing their helmet!
Children 12 and under, sign up to win a $350 incentive for Gettysburg Bicycle & Fitness!
When your child registers for the Festival near the stage and bikes in the Parade, they will automatically receive five raffle tickets to win a $350 Gettysburg Bicycle and Fitness incentive.
If you ride a bike before the event and inform habpi2021@gmail.com with the child’s name, age, adult contact email/phone number, and ride date, you will win an additional ticket! If the weather cancels the event on September 17, the $350 prize, chosen from those who registered via email, will still be awarded.
