Dasani Blue Bike Program
Come to the Bur-Mil Park's Wildlife Education Center and borrow a Dasani Blue Bike and helmet for free! To check out a bike, come to the center to get your swipe card. Riders must be at least 13 years old and at least 55 inches tall.
The Dasani Blue Bike program is a result of a nomination by the Rails to Trails Conservancy. Dasani Water Corporation, a subsidiary of Coca Cola, donated 20 Trek Classic Cruisers and a shelter to the Parks & Recreation Department's Trails and Greenways section. Bur-Mil Park was chosen as home to the program because of its easy access to the Lake Brandt Greenway, parking and other amenities.
