Things to do in Florida September 2, 3, 4, 5, 2011

This Labor Day Weekend list of Things to do in Florida September 2, 3, 4, 5, 2011 offers the weary laborer in Florida a variety of ways to take a break from the daily grind, but as many of you may have already heard, the choice of watching The Jerry Lewis Muscular Dystrophy Telethon all day isn't one of them. Not only will there be no Jerry this year (no explanation given), but the show itself has been reduced to a 6 hour program on Sunday night. Maybe just another sign of times, but for the millions who are not gonna get the chance to say it, here's a sign for you Mr. Lewis.

As for the other things to do in Florida this September 2, 3, 4, 5, 2011 - the options range from watching a baseball or football game to attending the Labor Day Mud-A Palooza at the Redneck Yacht Club in Punta Gorda. For those who can't take the heat, (still a bit humid out there) there's Disney on Ice in Lakeland or how about the Miami Home Design and Remodeling Show at the Miami Beach Convention Center. The DUB SuperSeries Custom Auto Show is also set for September 3rd. Like the MDA Telethon, info for these Florida events can sometimes be scant, but a free Aaron Carter concert is suppose to be at the Eagle Ridge Mall in Lake Wales, FL on September 2nd. Other celebs making the 'Things to do in Florida list for September 2, 3, 4, 5, 2011 are - The Oak Ridge Boys (okay it's on the the 8th but still,..) Rick Springfield in Clearwater on the 3rd and American Idol star, Taylor Hicks will be on the Beach in Pensacola also on September 3rd. And don't miss the Florida Gospel Music Association Convention in Wimauma, FL if you're a southern gospel fan.

What do you mean where is Wimauma?
