Rebel Reform and Rebel Converting to Play Major Role in 2025 Kosciusko Park Bike Day Donating Hundreds of Bikes and Leading Community Efforts

Milwaukee WI, May 29, 2025 – Loretta Kryshak, Executive Director of Rebel Reform, is proud to announce that Rebel Reform will once again be a cornerstone of the 2025 Kosciusko Park Bike Day continuing its longstanding commitment to providing children in need with bicycles, helmets, and locks. This annual event, dedicated to promoting healthy, active lifestyles, relies heavily on Rebel Reform’s substantial contributions and hands-on involvement.

Rebel Reform will donate hundreds of gently used bicycles to the 2025 Bike Day, ensuring that every child receives a safe and reliable bike. To facilitate this effort, the company provides a truck—and often funds a second truck—to collect and store the bikes for over two months leading up to the event. Rebel Reform employees play a critical role in loading and organizing the bicycles, ensuring smooth logistics throughout the process.

In preparation for the giveaway, Rebel Reform hosts its popular Mechanic Night at its factory, where local bike shop mechanics volunteer to repair and refurbish the donated bikes. Rebel Reform supports these efforts by providing food and refreshments, including beer, fostering a collaborative and community-driven atmosphere.

On the day of the Bike Giveaway, approximately 40 Rebel Reform employees volunteer to transport the repaired bikes, helmets, and locks to the event site at Kosciusko Park. They set up tables, distribute water, and personally fit each child for a bike, ensuring a proper and safe fit. Rebel Reform also purchases helmets and locks for every child, with staff taking the time to adjust each helmet and demonstrate how to use the locks. At the event’s conclusion, Rebel Reform employees pack up all materials, leaving the park clean and ready for future community use.

“We are thrilled to support the Kosciusko Park Bike Day and make a meaningful impact in our community,” said Loretta Kryshak. “Our team at Rebel Reform is dedicated to ensuring every child leaves with a bike, a helmet, and the confidence to ride safely. This event is a testament to the power of community collaboration, and we’re proud to play such a significant role.”

The Kosciusko Park Bike Day will take place on June 14th. For more information about the event or Rebel Reform’s contributions, please go to rebelreform.org.
