Worm Gruntin' Festival
We are excited about our upcoming festival on April 9, 2022. Sopchoppys annual Worm Gruntin Festival is a way to focus on and pay tribute to local folks who made their living by grunting worms. In times past, it was the only job some people could get. Some folks have called the festival a free public party featuring live bait. It IS a fun event! Were celebrating our 20th anniversary on April 9, and this years schedule begins with an 8 a.m. 5K road-race (or walk if you want to join in and arent a runner), also featured is a Revell Family demonstration with Gary Revell a long-time Sopchoppy grunter. Following the demo is a Gruntin Contest for kids under 12, a cornhole championship, and the entertaining hula hoop competition (hoops are supplied or bring your own). Bring the kids we have a special childrens area near the Depot Museum. There will be lots of food and arts & crafts vendors, a beer garden, and live music throughout the day culminating in the Worm Grunters Ball from 7:45 p.m. to 10 p.m. (bring your dancing shoes).
