After years of teaching Alberta’s youth how to safely ride off road, the ASA’s SAFE RIDERS school program has lost its government funding. We have reached around 10,000 students per year over the last decade and have already committed to this season as well. We now need your help to bring the only safe snowmobile and ATV riding lessons that Alberta’s students receive. We need to raise $50,000.00 to pay the program costs this season while we seek new ongoing funding.

You can help us by donating today and by contacting your MLA about the importance of teaching our children how to safely ride off road in all seasons.

Help us to raise funds to provide our SAFE RIDERS program FREE to Alberta Schools ! www.albertasaferiders.com
Reaching almost 10,000 students each school year, this in-school interactive seminar addresses safe and responsible, all season off road riding habits and techniques for students in K-3, Grades 4 - 6, and 7 - 12. Each level presents the Ride With Respect messages in an age appropriate manner.
This school year, we have no government funding and are already committed to the schools for the coming season.

No Cost to Schools or Students!
The ASA and other presenting partners cover all the costs of presentation and materials for the school. We bring it all with us!

All Seasons
The Ride With Respect curriculum covers all riding seasons on all machine types - snowmobiling as well as summer riding - quads, side by sides and dirt bikes are all covered.

Captivating!
This interactive seminar brings students the basics of safe, responsible riding. This material is not a part of the Alberta school curriculum and we are the only source of this potentially life saving information for our kids!

Smart Choices!
Accidents are predictable and preventable. We have choices in where, when, how and who we ride with. Good choices set us up for success. Unnecessarily pushing the limits or improper planning may lead to close calls or worse, a serious accident or even a fatality.

This is a just one of just some of the activities the ASA undertakes as it leads our sport in Alberta. It does all this without the benefit of a mandatory trail pass (as in all other jurisdictions in Canada!) and with the least expensive membership in Canada at only $80 for a full season.

Thanks to everyone who supported the fundraising at our Brewhouse Party during the sled show we were able to donate $1000 towards the Safe Riders program.

I agree, if not for everyone attending we couldn’t help support our local community.
