    We were recently in Avon Park and looking for something to do. We found the museum and decided to take a look. The museum was free, conveniently located downtown beside the railroad tracks, had plenty of local history, history of the region, its growth, and had very knowledgeable docents that could answer any questions. The museum is free and enhanced out visit to Avon Park.

    Made a quick trip to see the murals. Accessible, well lit and an impressive set of paintings. The next day we came back for the walking tour of Lake Wales Ridge flora. The trail was not well marked and a little rough for those with minor walking/balance challenges.

    This lovely cozy museum displays the art and unique story of Peter Powell Roberts. They also have any other artists work on display. They have artists on display with an opportunity to hear live music, drink some wine and socialize with the artist. They also offer many classes and venues to grow your own creativity, so check out their website.

    Enjoyed the course and staff interactions. Would go again. Older golfing couples and singles will enjoy the venue. Good food also.

    Great course to play, a lot of fun holes and unlike the typical Florida course, has hills and berms. It does have some boundary holes with houses, but for the most part, you're in nature. Wide fairways. Very Scottish feel to it, which is refreshing. Course was in great shape despite the lack of rain. Greens ran true. get the local players card and the green fees were $25. $25! Such value! Off the beaten path, which may be why it wasn't crowded, which is fine by me. Staff was pleasant and friendly and the bartender made a fine drink. :)

    The orange ice cream is to die for! But don't forget to get some of the fresh produce while you are there too. Very worth the trip and great to enjoy the rockers on the front porch.

    SFSC Alan Jay Auditorium is the #1 venue for any shows in Highlands County. Easy access, plenty of parking and not really a bad seat in the building. The total program over the snowbird months offers many choices afternoon, evenings etc. All top notch shows. You can go wrong. Let's Hang On is terrific & we would go to see them again!
