It's such a shame this place is hidden and has terrible signage as it's a wonderful quick visit!…read more Location- It's on the second floor of my town's Community Center located on Main Street. There is a small sign. Parking is a snap and free. What to expect- A few small beautifully lit rooms and a small gift shop. See my pictures. Please control your children. Duration- This is a small museum dedicated to local and regional artists. I've visited twice now, and each time spent less than an hour, but it was time very well spent. Because of its size this is not a destination in and of itself but a place to stop by when you're in the area and to get out of the Florida heat! Hours- They are limited so go to the web site which is on the Yelp page. The Neighborhood- Because it's on Main Street there are several eateries and places to grab an adult libation. Many are within walking distance or at most, a two-minute drive. Mexican food is particularly well represented. Use your Yelp app to find them. It's amazing what you can discover in a teeny tiny town and this experience is a great example!

His work is renowned for rendering the oft-overlooked Florida minutia in powerful near abstract compositions using oil paint on wood. The Museum also offers sculptures and furniture made from rare sunken cypress logs salvaged from Florida rivers by Master Diver, Sawyer and artist, John Claytor. The gift shop offers three dimensional and wearable art from select regional artists as well books from local authors and Peter Powell Roberts prints, cards and collectibles.

I stopped in and found it was staffed by three wonderful ladies whose average age seemed like 150. LOL! Of course, this was by design as they were all born in my little town and had lived much of the history! They were fountains of knowledge and a pleasure to chat with. I spent a pleasant hour perusing the displays and learning about the past. Who knew that in the late 1800s my little town was known for its pineapple production! That's right, pineapples growing commercially in Central Florida. Go figure! This is a free museum with limited hours Wednesday through Friday! If you are a history buff or just want to while away an hour in the heat of a Florida day, this can be a pleasant little excursion.

This is my fourth time to this track and it looks like they've done a lot of improvements to the…read moretrack or the facilities around the track. I remember the first time I came to the track. It was pretty dirty and it seemed like the bathrooms were really unkept, but I noticed this time they had people at every single bathroom keeping them clean every time I went to the bathroom, it was super clean now Road Atlanta needs to catch up with them. I like the new bridge crossovers that let you get to the paddocks and over the track. The shuttles have been great for people who don't feel like walking and especially when my knees needed a break from the stairs. Temporary signs were everywhere and the free parking for those whom didn't purchase or have an inside parking sure is nice as it helps it brings a bigger crowd to the races and helps promote and keep the sport popular. I did get to park inside with my four day pass and that was really nice to not have to buy it separately but also the free parking wasn't super far either. The weather has been great so far and the track staff have kept the track clean and so far it's been a fun event. I'll update after the race with any post race feedback. I finally found the free program with the map of the track layout and the shuttle stops have a track map also. This has been super helpful. At Daytona they had either ran out or didn't have maps and it was challenging and frustrating. They need to add temporary track maps to their shuttle stops like Sebring. I also like how the shuttle staff were familiar with the stops and helped navigate when and where to get off based on where you were wanting to go, something the staff at Daytona definitely had no clue about and their lines were long and fans were frustrated not knowing where to go or if they were even getting on the correct shuttles.

Sebring International Raceway is a true race track holding all sorts of motorsport races including…read morethe Mobil 1 Twelve Hour. As the first race here was held in 1950, it's one of the oldest continuously operating tracks in the United States. I came here to see the two days of Porsche racing with only Porches involved in the races. I ended up staying at the Sebring International Raceway Hotel also known as Seven Sebring Raceway Hotel in room 417 which is located right on the race track with a balcony overlooking its famous hairpin turn. The room I had was great. It was clean, well-furnished and with the best race track view anyone could ask for. Then, with its Apex bar and restaurant facilities a total of Yelp 5 plus stars.

I have 3 daughters and this was our third and BEST wedding hands down. We loved the venue and all…read morethe activities really gave us a chance to co-mingle with all the guests. Tammy was incredible and was there to make sure everything went smooth. I can't thank or praise her enough. Without her our stress level would have been through the room, and I can think of a couple bumps in the road that she gracefully averted for us. Tammy was the MVP of the trip!!! For the price, this is an incredible value and I recommend Westgate River Ranch for your wedding or event. I have to say that everyone we met were so nice, and everyone was willing to go above and beyond. The girls that held the lobby doors, the agents at the desk were all so helpful, as was the golf cart attendant. A nice young man named Sam was our waiter three times, was awesome, and even though the kitchen was a little long the first night, and some of our guests got impatient, I was really impressed at how Sam handled it and won us over. We loved the clay shooting and again we had a great guide! The swamp buggy was great also. Again we loved the driver! My wife and I can't wait to come up by ourselves.

AMC Lakeshore 8 is a really nice theater and has become one of the main reasons we still make a…read moretrip to Lakeshore Mall. The staff has always been friendly, the theater is comfortable, and you can't beat fresh movie-theater popcorn and a cold Coke. They also have Coca-Cola Freestyle machines, so there are plenty of drink options. If you're looking for something a little stronger, they have a MacGuffins bar serving beer, wine, and other adult beverages. The theaters themselves are nicely set up with reserved seating and heated reclining seats that make a huge difference, especially for a longer movie. The screens are nice and large, and they now offer Laser at AMC projection, which gives the picture excellent brightness, color, and clarity. You can even order food and drinks ahead through mobile ordering and have everything ready when you arrive. My only disappointment really has nothing to do with AMC itself--it's the mall surrounding it. Lakeshore Mall has unfortunately been declining for years, and it seems like every time we visit there are fewer stores open. It's sad to see because I remember when malls like this were packed and were destinations themselves. Thankfully, AMC continues to give people a reason to come here. Comfortable recliners, big screens, good popcorn, cold drinks, a bar, and friendly employees make this a solid place to catch a movie. Hopefully the theater sticks around for many years to come!

Quite a surprise for teeny tiny Avon Park! The college has an enormous campus here with dozens of…read morebuildings. Read on for why you should visit. Location- With so many buildings it can be a little overwhelming. Let your GPS do its thing along with the picture I posted, and you'll have no trouble spotting it. Plenty of easy parking. Time Commitment- This is a small museum. Ninety minutes and most folks will be done. What to Expect- As the name suggests, expect the focus to be on Florida including the artists. It's a great way to learn about this wonderful state! Cost- Every time I have been here it has been free with donations requested. Hours- Extremely limited. Check first before you go. This is not a "Destination" location. It's the kind of place you visit when you are in the area and have a few minutes. Yelp will give you plenty of places for lunch within five minutes of here. What a great place to walk off that huge platter of Gator Bites & giant pitcher of beer!

During my travels I have visited a lot of Veteran Memorials but this is the first war dog memorial…read morethat I have found. This memorial is located in front of the Avon Park Community Center and it was dedicated on November 9, 2018. It was donated to the City of Avon Park by the Battle of the Bands and the Loyal Order of the Moose. The Battle of the Bands is an organization created on February 15, 2005 in order to create an annual display that honors veterans on Main Street every holiday season. The monument features a 5 foot tall soldier, German shepherds, collies, and other breeds of dogs. At night the memorial is lit up. As a huge dog lover this memorial instantly caught my attention. It not only recognizes how dogs have served in combat but also how they have offered emotional therapy and support to our soldiers. I love this touching tribute to mans best friend.

I am so ashamed and triple embarrassed! OMG Steven B, what did you do?…read more I've lived in this teeny tiny town for five years and I'm a lifelong dog lover and I've been a member of the Loyal Order of Moose for many years. I've driven by this wonderful memorial maybe a thousand times and for some strange reason it's never "clicked!" Along comes my good Yelp friend https://www.yelp.com/user_details?userid=lvthTfCQGD0qaEk6jCdRdQ from considerably out of town and she writes the very first review! I am so ashamed! Thank you, Ariel W., for bringing me to my senses. This is an awesome and well-deserved memorial for our four-legged friends that is co-sponsored by the local Moose Lodge. War Dogs have helped humans for hundreds of years, saved countless lives and provided much needed emotional support to our soldiers. The memorial is very nicely done in bronze. I've stopped by twice now and I'm not ashamed to say that I've shed a tear or two!
