Things to do in Florida March 16, 17, 18, 2012

Not all of these things to do in Florida March 16, 17, 18, 2012 are about celebrating St. Patrick's Day. Some aren't even close - like the Hollywood Artspark Experience BRAZIL in Hollywood, FL on March 17th or the 7th Annual Asian Cultural Festival in Sarasota March 17 and 18. And you probably won't spot a four leaf clover at the Daytona 200 this coming Saturday or at the 11th Annual Southwest Florida Seafood Festival going on in Cape Coral, FL also set for March 17th. But these "other" things to do in Florida March 16, 17, 18, 2012 are still a pot o' gold at the end of the rainbow and a welcome escape after a busy work week. Also take note of the many county fairs on the list offering a funnel cake of fun while several of Florida's State Parks welcome you to enjoy some of the family friendliest entertainment around - and at a budget friendly price. No, it's not all about St. Patrick's Day and you'll find a lot more on this list than leprechauns and shamrocks. But if shamrocks are your thing, then ROCK ON! at the 'Shamrock & Roll' this St. Patrick's Day in New Smyrna Beach, FL.  Irish green, or maybe just one of your Moody Blues, you'll find these and a lot more things to do in Florida March 16, 17, 18, 2012. The main thing to do is - just have fun!
