May 20th’s main event, Soul Stroll, is treasured as a fun, family, friendly event encouraging community members to safely engage in physical activities including, walking, running, and biking with a resource marketplace of nonprofit organizations, businesses, volunteering and government groups all focused on health and wellness.
