Overview
Mission
After kids show up on the scene, the trail still calls. Mountain biking is a passion for many families. But it's not like little league. Often families that ride don't have peers for the kids to participate with. This club bridges that gap. We gather for weekly rides that are broken into ability based groups. Kids discover the joy of riding with peers while gaining skills and fitness. That's the whole point of the Skinks.The Blue-Tailed Skinks Kids MTB Club is a mountain bike club centered on getting kids in kindergarten through 5th grade out on the trails. We are based in Western Sonoma County. We aim to ensure that the rides offer a fun, supportive and inclusive atmosphere.
What it reported doing in 2025
The Blue Tailed Skinks successfully completed their third season with sold-out registration and a full calendar of coached group rides, camps, and clinics.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
STRONG - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
