Courthouse onto State Road 189, southwest on State Road 189 to Roberts Blvd
(intersection where Mama Rosa’s Pizza is located), turn right/ north on Roberts Road,
traveling north on Roberts Road for % mile — which does include passing the security
gate, then turning around and following the same route to return back to the
Northwest Florida Fairgrounds.
The Greater Fort Walton Beach Chamber of Commerce is working directly with the
City of Ft Walton Beach on the Florida Department of Transportation General Use
Permit requirements for the portion of the race that will be State Road 189. All
requirements per the FDOT will be meet to include arrow boards, barricades, side
