LW Historic Bike Ride for MLK Day - Sunday 1/20


A 5-mile historical, Community Bike Ride to celebrate the impact 
of Martin Luther King, Jr. in Lake Worth, FL will begin and end at 
Calvary United Methodist Church, beginning on Sunday, January 20th, at Noon. The event is free and open to the public. A prize drawing will be held during the Noon registration.

Mr. Ted Brownstein from the Lake Worth Martin Luther King, Jr. 
Committee will be on hand to share maps and historical notes about 
locations on the route. These include the three homesites of Fannie 
and Samuel James, the Jewel Post Office, the Mural of Unity, and 
MLK Memorial. The Sheriff’s Department asks that we ride no 
more than two abreast and exercise caution at every intersection.

The Calvary UMC parking lot is located on Federal Highway & 2nd 
Avenue South in downtown Lake Worth, two blocks south of Lake 
Avenue. The folks at Calvary UMC have been hosting a Community 
Bike Ride every-other-month since July. For more information, 
please contact the Church Office at 561-585-1786.
