In what may have been one of Calvert’s largest organized bike rides ever, on Saturday, April 25, 2009 over 350 cyclists hit the road to help End Hunger In Calvert County (EHCC). Riders came from as far as Maine, all to raise money and awareness about some of Calvert’s neediest residents. Through the event, riders and several local businesses raised over $12,000 all to help re-stock the shelves of local food pantries that are a part of the EHCC network.
