Bicyclists abound at WWU on Bike to Work and School Day

Today is the annual Bike to Work and School Day, and the two celebration stations set up on the Western Washington University campus received scores of visitors while they were open in the morning, said Wendy Crandall, who works in Transportation Services at WWU and who helped man the station set up near Bond Hall.

On the other end of campus, near the Wade King Student Recreation Center, a handful of communication and journalism students volunteered at another celebration station as part of a service-learning project.
