This coming Wednesday will be inaugural Bike to the Market Day at the Sammamish Farmer’s Market.

All Bicyclists will receive a “Market Buck” to spend at the market, and a market shopping bag.

Bike to the Market is sponsored by International Justice Mission, a humanitarian organization that frees slaves.

There are approximately 27 million slaves in the world. This organization works to free them and help them start new lives.

In order to encourage participation, in the Bike to Market event, IJM will be holding a bicycle ride to the market, leaving from Sammamish Presbyterian Church between 5:30 and 5:45 p.m. on Wednesday, June 3.

For more information on the ride, contact Ray Dellecker at rdellecker@w-link.net.

Also at the market on June 3 will be Lisa Dupar of Lisa Dupar Catering and Pomegranate Bistro.

The City of Sammamish and Audio Amigo will also be filming short video clips from community members that will be placed in the time capsule at the City’s 10th Birthday party.

Please be sure to stop by and leave a message for yourself or your community that will be opened on August 31, 2049.
