the day.

Yes! I cannot wait to participate in Partners for Affordable Housing’s Pedal
6 Past Poverty stationary bike race designed to raise support for Mankato’s two
homeless shelters, the Theresa House and the Welcome Inn. I understand
that the real winners will be those in our community who find themselves in a
temporary housing crisis and are in need of emergency shelter.

that I am in good physical condition and do not suffer from any known disability
or condition which would prevent or limit my participation in this activity. I

assigns (collectively “Partners for Affordable Housing”), hosts, sponsors and

• Radio Mankato will be with us throughout the day blasting kick-butt,
pedal-fast music! DJ’s will keep our riders motivated, counting out the
seconds that remain in each heat. Finally, KEYC-TV crews will do their
best to make sure your family catches a glimpse of you on the
evening news.
• Crazy, zany prizes will be awarded throughout the day. Almost everyone
can plan on walking away with something wonderful!
