The Friends of Randy of Sanibel (FOROS) has confirmed that the island’s beloved tradition will continue, with the 45th Annual 4th of July Road Rally officially set to return.
This year’s rally coincides with Sanibel’s 50th anniversary of incorporation as a city, making the event a double celebration. As one of the island’s longest-running fundraisers, it invites the community to rally together for fun and for a cause.
FOROS, a state-registered nonprofit led by long-time resident and “rally master” Randy Carson, stepped in to preserve this community staple after previous organizers disbanded. Each year, the event supports a different local cause, and this year’s proceeds will benefit the Clinic for the Rehabilitation of Wildlife (CROW).
Additionally, FOROS will continue its initiative to support school-aged children living in Community Housing & Resources rental homes by donating funds for back-to-school supplies this fall.
How to Get Involved
Sponsorship opportunities are currently available, and organizers are also seeking donations for goody bag items distributed during the event.
