Don your best Irish and join in Shamrock’n the Harbor. The family-friendly run/walk event encourages all ages to get seriously Irish. Run, walk, or skip along your Shamrock’n journey!
The 5k and 12k routes take runners, walkers and strollers, o’er the hills, dales, streets and trails of our greater Gig Harbor and Key Peninsula region. Shamrock’n the Harbor benefits the Gig Harbor Senior Center and is a great excuse to get outside while helping a great cause.
The 13th Annual Pierce County Bike Swap is a FREE family-friendly community event put on by Ride Together Pierce, where anyone can sell or buy used bicycles and bicycle parts. We encourage you to bring a helmet if you plan on test-riding bikes.
At the Bike Swap, Ride Together Pierce is planning on providing:
- BIKE CORRAL: Buy a bike or sell a bike at our Bike Corral. If you have 1-2 bikes to sell, this is the recommended route. There are no listing or selling fees. You do not need to sell a bike to buy, or trade. Come find your new-to-you ride!
- BIKE SAFETY CHECKS: Make sure your future bike is safe to test ride by taking it through a quick safety check first by a professional bicycle mechanic.
- LOW-COST HELMETS: Provided by Downtown on the Go, bicyclists can purchase affordable helmets and get a proper helmet fitting.
- BIKE MAP MASTERS: Discuss best biking routes with seasoned local riders at the Bike Map Masters station.
- BIKE SKILLS PRACTICE AREA: Folks of all ages and abilities can practice safe riding skills such as balancing, scanning, stopping, turning, and more.
- VENDORS: We will be inviting local bike shops and bike-related organizations to show off their products and share the latest information with you on bicycling in Pierce County. If you have several bicycles or bike parts to sell, we recommend you register as a vendor. There are no vendor fees.
