The 2012 Warrior Ride is a 4-day event for the Wounded Warrior Project that originates in Carolina Beach on September 26th. On September 28th, they will be transported to Riverside Park in Shallotte. After a welcoming ceremony at 11:00 a.m. and a brief visit with the Shallotte Middle School staff and students, the cyclists will begin cycling toward nearby Sunset Beach.
They will leave Shallotte around noon and travel to Sunset Beach via Route 179 with an expected arrival at approximately 2:00 pm.
Residents and merchants are encouraged to support these wounded veterans by showing that we recognize their sacrifice to keep us free. People from every church, civic organization, business & community are encouraged to be on the street when they go by ––waving, holding flags or signs and honoring them.
The cyclists will cross the Mannon C. Gore Bridge, visit the beach gazebo area and have lunch while in Sunset Beach before continuing along Shoreline Drive West to the VFW in Calabash.
