The arrival weekend is scheduled for 3 p.m., May 28, 2011. The Gear Up Florida arrival weekend celebrates cycling and service across the state of Florida. Whether you are a team member, parent, friend or just a bystander, it is easy to get caught up in the excitement that surrounds this weekend. This is a weekend of celebrating abilities, accomplishments, and simply reflecting on a service to others. Service beyond self.

This weekend is not just an end to an incredible trek; it is the start of an ongoing journey that will forever change a Gear Up Florida team member’s life. Over the course of the two weeks, Gear Up Florida team members have experienced joy, pain, exhaustion and a deeper understanding for people with disabilities.

We hope that you will join us in our celebration. For questions regarding the Gear Up Florida arrival, please contact Dave Knavel.
