The Wheelies is What’s Up.

The Wheelies is the Bus Project’s red carpet awards show for stuff that matters.

 

Being a true champion of the public interest can be tough work. That’s why every two years the Bus hands out Wheelies Awards to individuals, organizations, and businesses that treat Oregon right.

The Wheelies is the biennial benefit for the Bus Project and a chance to celebrate the people, partnerships and groups that make up Oregon’s No-Sellouts Club, all with glitz and glamour.

And this year it’s also our tenth birthday. That’s right: the Bus just reached the double digits. It is now older than a 4th grader.

This year, The Wheelies will be held at the Gerding Theater on October 10th. Whether you’re a hard-core Bus volunteer, a visionary community leader, a hardened politico, an innovative entrepreneur, or just someone who gives a sh** about democracy, you’ve gotta be there.

If you’re not, you’re pretty much making a colossal mistake.
