Mr. Eric Boerer Day!
Yep, our very own Erok Boerer is being honored by the Mayor for his “volunteerism and dedication to the City of Pittsburgh” and is being given the Citizen Service Award, the newest addition to Mayor Luke’s servePGH Initiative, on this 26th of August 2011. The award is going to key leaders in our fair city who have “contributed exceptional levels of service towards the advancement of Pittsburgh communities.”
The letter specifically highlights his work advancing the City’s goal of “a cleaner and greener future” by promoting bike lanes, bike commuting, and providing free resources and information to bicyclists via Bike Pittsburgh, and working to make our streets safer for everyone who uses our streets. Check out the full proclamation below.
We couldn’t be prouder of you, Erok!
May this be the first of many well-deserved awards.

[…] I will go out on a limb and say that anyone who knows Erok would agree that he’s one fantastic human being. He’s been a valued contributor to Urban Velo since its inception, and a personal friend since long before the magazine began. He’s been instrumental in Pittsburgh bike advocacy on many levels, and currently works for the national bike organization of the year, BikePGH. […]
That’s awesome!!!
Happy Eric Boerer Day, PGH!
Yahoo! Congrats, Erok!
