Things to do in Florida June 17, 18, 19, 2011

Dominating this list of things to do in Florida June 17, 18, 19, 2011 is dear old Dad. Though you'll find all the events enjoyable whether you're a father or not, June 19th IS 'Fathers Day' and the big guy will finally get his 15 minutes in the spotlight. Of course no two dads are entirely the same and having their own unique idea of the perfect way to celebrate their special day, a wide variety of events have been included. For the active dad you may want to head on over to the 'I Love Father's Day 5K' in Palm Harbor or maybe even try a snorkeling adventure in Fort Lauderdale for a cooler day of fun. Both Dad and the kids will enjoy a trip to the zoo or how about Dinosaur World in Plant City, FL where Dad gets a freebie on his admission to the park. Be sure to take note when going over the list of things to do in Florida for June 17, 18, 19, 2011 of any special restrictions on Father's Day specials. These are generally indicated on the individual websites. This would also be a good time for all of us to remember our military fathers who along with their families make sacrifices daily to preserve our freedom. A kind gesture or show of support, especially for those unable to be together on Father's Day would let them know how much they're appreciated. A gift to organizations such as Patriot Service Dogs could also go a long way in helping make life better for our veterans. Finally in an effort to be fair, it should be mentioned that Keith Urban will be in both Jacksonville and Tampa this weekend - there are at least a few things to do in Florida for June 17, 18, 19, 2011 that could turn Father's Day into Mother's day as well!

Have a Great Father's Day!
