Date: October 5, 2021

Richland, W.A. – Manhattan Project National Historical Park is partnering with Bike Tri-Cities, the REACH Museum, and Wheelhouse Bike Shop, to host the inaugural Ride with a Ranger program on October 9 at 9:00 am. Ride with a Ranger is a free, family-friendly interpretive bike ride along the Sacajawea Heritage Trail from Columbia Point Marina Park to the REACH Museum in Richland.

Participants will join National Park Service Rangers and REACH Museum staff for an 8-mile round-trip ride from Columbia Point Marina Park to the REACH Museum. There will be two stops along the route for presentations on the way to the museum. At the REACH Museum, participants will have the opportunity to enjoy hands-on activities, walk the Energy Northwest Animal Trail, and explore indoor museum exhibits.

Registration is required to participate in this free event. Event registration closes on October 8 at 6:00 pm. Bike Tri-Cities paid for museum admission for registrants.

“Working with our partners made it possible for us offer this unique, family-friendly ranger program and share the rich natural and cultural heritage of the Tri-Cities. Ride with a Ranger is a fun and active way to learn more about your own backyard,” stated Hanford Unit Site Manager Becky Burghart.
