This month's ride will be held in conjunction with the 9th Annual Gullah Geechee Heritage Festival at Armstrong Park.

Music, dance, traditional foods, and craft celebrating 450 years of West African influence in St. Johns County. Performers include the Geechee Gullah Ring Shouters, Doug Carn, and Amy Alysia & the Soul Operation. Special guest Chef Matthew Raiford, author of Bress 'n' Nyam, presents a cooking demonstration and book signing.
Free to attend with food and beverage available for purchase. This event benefits the SEA Community Resource Center.

Each year, the Armstrong community has been volunteering at the Tour de Forts at rest stops and registration, so please support them after the ride, by grabbing some lunch at the festival with your fellow cyclists.
