Freebird Forever Loop
This ride bridges the gap between southern rock music and department stores. Starting and ending in Green Cove Springs, a small town south of Jacksonsville. Along the first half of this ride you'll pass the Ronnie Van Zant Memorial Park, a tribute to the Lynyrd Skynyrd founder. The last part of the ride takes you through Penney Farms, a town that was founded as an experimental farm by J.C. Penney, of the department store fame. Today it's a retirement community.
