Celebration of National Minority Health Month @ Carroll Park

In celebration of National Minority Health Month, the athletic, health, and social organizations of Baltimore are coming together to promote healthy minds, bodies, and souls in the Black and Brown communities.

Join us in the many activities offered by both Move Well Fest-a festival hosted by Pigtown Climbs and the 1st Annual Spring Cyclovia- a special event hosted by Baltimore's premier cycling advocacy group.

Cyclovia:

The 1st Annual Spring Black People Ride Bikes (BPRB) Cyclovia at Carroll Park is a collaboration with Rails to Trails Conservancy and Friends of Carroll Park. This event will be celebration of the cycling community in Baltimore and the Open the Trails Day within the City.
