Keystone Heights

Lake Geneva - Keystone Heights, FL

For many Keystone Heights residents, Lake Geneva is as much a part of the city's collective memory as the annual 'Our Country Day Parade' celebrated every 4th of July. As these photos remind us, the day may come when Keystone's small town charm will be gone with the Walmart wind. Hopefully, that day will be delayed and through the efforts of those who cherish those memories and know what will be lost, many more will come to live and enjoy Keystone Heights FL.
