Downtown Rogers is about to get a boost of bikes, beer, and community spirit. Ozark Beer Company is once again teaming up with nationally recognized nonprofit Can’d Aid to host a large-scale Bike Build & Donation event—and this time, it’s happening right on Ozark’s own patio.

Mark your calendars: on Tuesday, May 21st from 5:30 to 7:30 PM, where locals of all ages are invited to join in the hands-on effort to build over 1,200 bicycles for Northwest Arkansas youth in need. The very next morning, on May 22nd, the brand-new bikes will be donated to 2nd graders at the International School at Mary Mae Jones—many of whom will be receiving their very first bicycle.

No experience is required—Can’d Aid provides the tools and know-how, and BMX legend Jeff Lenosky will be on-site performing tricks and turning wrenches right alongside the volunteers.

This is Ozark’s second collaboration with Can’d Aid, a Colorado-based nonprofit that focuses on providing underserved youth with access to outdoor fun and creativity through bikes, skateboards, music, and clean water initiatives. But it’s their first time hosting such a large-scale bike build at their brewery—and they're going big.

Ozark Beer Co.’s #DrinkBeerDoGood initiative, active since 2015, has partnered with hundreds of nonprofits across Arkansas and beyond. This event marks another meaningful chapter in their commitment to building a better community through beer and action. And if you need more reason to swing by, Chop Shop BBQ will be serving up their signature eats to keep volunteers fueled.

This is more than just another feel-good event. It’s a powerful reminder of how collaboration, community, and a bit of elbow grease can spark joy and opportunity—one bike at a time.
