A Note on Inclement Weather
Florida’s weather can be quite unpredictable! While we’ll do our best to provide updates on event pages if we anticipate changes, please keep in mind that rain is always a possibility. If the rain is light and expected to pass quickly, we'll usually proceed with the event as planned. However, if the weather becomes too challenging, we may relocate to a nearby restaurant to keep the fun going!
