Shelter Century<br />
Fall Foliage Ride –<br />
October 19th<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Talbot</strong> Interfaith Shelter announces<br />
the second annual Shelter Century Fall Foliage<br />
Ride to be held on October 19, 2013 at<br />
8:00 am. <strong>The</strong> event will feature three separate<br />
rides, an 11 mile family fun ride, a 31<br />
mile fitness ride and a metric century (62.5<br />
mile) ride. Proceeds will benefit the <strong>Talbot</strong><br />
Interfaith Shelter (TIS), a cold weather<br />
homeless shelter in <strong>Talbot</strong> County, MD.<br />
<strong>The</strong> fall foliage ride takes cyclists<br />
through five picturesque waterside villages<br />
in <strong>Talbot</strong> County, sharing the view with<br />
skipjacks, local watermen and sailboat races<br />
on the Miles River and the Chesapeake Bay.<br />
Starting and ending at the St. Michaels Elementary<br />
School, the town of St. Michaels<br />
offers cyclists and their families shopping,<br />
dining and historic lodging. <strong>The</strong> event is a<br />
ride, not a race, and is fun for the entire family.<br />
Rest stops will be available for all<br />
courses with light food, refreshments and<br />
restrooms provided.<br />
All cyclists are treated with homemade<br />
pies of every kind at the end of the event,<br />
and cyclists on the 31 mile and 62.5 mile<br />
rides are invited to join TIS at St. Michaels<br />
Crab and Steak House for free beer and crab<br />
balls on the town’s waterfront afterwards.<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Talbot</strong> Interfaith Shelter is dedicated<br />
both to providing safe, temporary shelter<br />
to men, women, and children who lack<br />
adequate housing, and to raising awareness<br />
of the issues of homelessness in <strong>Talbot</strong><br />
County. Fifteen faith communities rotate the<br />
homeless shelter through their church facilities<br />
during the cold weather months. Over<br />
500 volunteers from the faith communities<br />
have worked together since 2008 to keep<br />
neighbors off the streets and in warm beds<br />
during the winter. Sponsors and cyclists participating<br />
in the event will directly help provide<br />
shelter to the homeless during the cold<br />
weather months.<br />
