DOWNTOWN SARASOTA (SNN TV) – A “RADD” Holiday Bash takes place this Thursday at Rosemary Park in downtown Sarasota.

There will be food, drinks, a performance by the Sarasota Music Conservatory, and a group bike ride through the Rosemary District and downtown. The City of Sarasota is providing free use of its VEO bikeshare program if you don’t have a bike, but quantities are limited.

The Boys and & Girls Club of Sarasota and DeSoto Counties is hosting the toy drive during the event: just bring new, unwrapped toys if you’d like to participate.

Also, come with ugly sweaters!

The bike rides begin at 5:30 p.m., while check-in is at 5 p.m. The RADD Holiday Bash runs from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. this Thursday evening, December 15.
