Cross Country Road Trip Tour 2018 Memorial Day

Houston, Tex., based 501 (c) 3 Veterans support group, Guns to Hammers (GTH), in collaboration with Pensacola Bay Brewery, announces its Cross Country Road Trip Tour 2018 Memorial Day ''stop'' event at Pensacola Bay Brewery, 225 E Zaragoza St, Pensacola, Fla. Commencing at 2 p.m. on Monday, Memorial Day, GTH and Pensacola Bay's master brewer Mark Robertson invite Escambia and Santa Rosa county residents and visitors to join in honoring the service and sacrifice of America's Warriors. From casual strollers to motorcycle enthusiasts, all will be welcome to meet the GTH Road Trip Tour riders, and to learn about this growing national network of construction professionals whose mission is to help disabled Veterans gain greater independence through GTHmember donated home renovations in compliance with the Americans with Disability Act (ADA). ''This is a fundraiser as well as an awareness-raising event,'' said Robertson, a long-time supporter of Veterans. ''We at Pensacola Bay Brewery will be donating $1.50 of every beer sold to support the muchneeded work these skilled folks offer. I can't help but be impressed by JR Smith, the US Marine Veteran who founded GTH.'' Smith, owner and founder of H-Towne & Around Remodelers, a successful Houston building renovations firm, had decided to put his time and money toward doing something for Veterans whose experiences in war had been far more devastating than his own. ''Many are left unable to navigate their own homes,'' he said. ''Having seen what could––but didn't––happen to me, I view ADA compliance as a partner in giving back.'' An enthusiastic turnout is anticipated for the GTH ride itself, which will start earlier at the Southern Saints Brotherhood Riding Club, on 7076 Jefferson Street in Navarre. Motorcyclist registration is at 10 a.m., with kickstands up at 11. Riders will cruise Navarre Parkway westbound onto Route 98, passing through Gulf Breeze and over the three-mile Pensacola Bay Bridge to the Pensa
