On January 13, 2014, the students and staff at Barnett Elementary were favored with an assembly put on by Rich Wieber and his associates, Justin and Eric. They are a bike stunt group that hails from Minnesota and they tour all over the country. In addition to demonstrating how to make sure a bike is safe to ride and how to check for a perfectly sized helmet, Wieber and company explained how to be safe in life. They talked about how if you want to reach your goals, you need to practice a lot and be prepared for the progress to be slow. The importance of having a clear mind was raised--clear from negative thoughts, and especially being clear from harmful substances. The bikers shared their thoughts on how bad bullying is and how helpful it is to be a good friend and to find good friends who can help you safely achieve your goals. Not only did they share all of this information with Barnett, but they showed us the work of their long hours of practice, including jumping over Mrs. Hair, Ms. Zylstra, and Mr. Applegate!
