Floridian members, after learning about the forts from Joey Vars earlier in the day, join Explore Florida coordinator Cathy Salustri for a low-key bike ride (optional; approximately 1 mile ride) from the Fort De Soto Bay Pier to the Fort at Fort De Soto Park. Tour the fort, then join our group for a sunset picnic. Food will be provided. Bring your own beverage (BYOB).
Please email Cathy with any dietary concerns by May 10. If you wish to bike, meet by the dog park at 6 p.m.; if you wish to join us for the fort and cookout only, please join us at 6:30 p.m. at the shot room at the fort. View a map of the park here. The link to the waiver and release form for this activity will be in your receipt.
Visit the County's Fort De Soto webpage for updates to parking information and entry fees. Your program fee includes a meal and guide.
