Things to do in Florida July 4th 2012

This list of Things to do in Florida July 4th 2012 should be called something like, 'The Florahome U.S.A. RED, WHITE AND BOOMING-STAR SPANGLED SPECTACULAR 4TH OF JULY PATRIOTIC PALOOZA CELEBRATION LIST!!!' It's simply UN-American not to try and out BOOM your neighbor. Creativity however is also the American way and in looking for Things to do in Florida July 4th 2012 one should not overlook the more subtle events offering something just a little different. Take the 'Old-fashioned Bed Race' in Bonita Springs for example - what's more American than racing down the street on your Sealy Posturepedic? Another example is the '1st Annual July 4th Bike Parade' in Lake Wales, FL or Parkland, Florida's 'July 4th Red, White and Blue Bicycle Parade' letting you parade your patriotic pedals before the flag waving crowd! Still others see Independence Day as a time for 'Lifting Up God and Country' as they will in Melbourne, FL this year remembering those simple virtues that founded a nation. An old fashioned picnic such as those happening in Tarpon Springs FL or Barnacle Historic State Park in Coconut Grove, FL also harken back to those simpler times when a meal with family and friends was more appreciated than today's latest smartphone. In the end though, Nothing is more American than diversity and since it IS Independence Day and it is YOUR country, make whatever you choose YOUR Thing to do in Florida July 4th 2012 and as always, please don't set the woods on fire. Y'all have a good one!

July 4th 2012 - Melbourne, FL

Things to do in Florida June 22, 23, 24, 2012

Many of these Things to do in Florida June 22, 23, 24, 2012 are especially fun for kids and a great way for families to connect without high speed access. Oh, it was a joke - imagine a family communicating without high speed access. Actually, it may not seem that impossible once you've seen the Naples Player's production of Click, Clack, Moo Cows that Type. If you happen to be in the Naples area June 23rd or 24th, take a step outside the box and visit a most unusual farm where the cows get the last laugh in typewritten form. Also check out the Riverside Children's Theatre production of Zanadu Jr. in Vero Beach, FL or the Haines City Community Theatre KIDS! production of 'A Pirate's Life For Me' where the kid's themselves provide the talent and the fun! As for the other things to do in Florida June 22, 23, 24, 2012 try the 46th Annual Panhandle Watermelon Festival in Chipley, FL for a thumpin' good time. In Flagler Beach you'll be just in time for the latest Spiderman installment with the 'Spectacular Spider Program' at Gamble Rogers Memorial State Recreation Area. Finally, how about taking the family to a baseball game, or if it's just you and your hubby, try the 'Taste of the Caribbean and Jerk Festival' in Clermont, FL - cover your all your bases. It's a family friendly list of things to do in Florida June 22, 23, 24, 2012. No texting please. Right... now that's a good one.

Things to do in Florida June 15, 16, 17, 2012

Dad will love all these Things to do in Florida June 15, 16, 17, 2012. Well,...okay, maybe not ALL of them - you know Dad, but the list this week includes a wide variety of Father's day and other events that may be right up his alley. Great lead in for a bowling event huh? Well it just so happens there is one in St. Petersburg, FL at Ten Pin Lanes where Dad bowls free when you bowl with him. Of course while Dad IS the star of the show this week, you'll also find plenty of things to do in Florida June 15, 16, 17, 2012 the whole family can enjoy - like the '4th Annual June Bug Festival and Car Show' set for June 16th in Live Oak, FL. There will be food, live entertainment and plenty of activities for the kids while Dad checks out the cars. Top that off with a fabulous fireworks display and you just can't miss! Well yes, Dad does have that reflux problem so if he doesn't miss the fried ice cream, he may miss the fireworks. Lastly, with temperatures getting more summer-like, Florida's Water Parks are a great place to cool off and with Daytona Beach's Daytona Lagoon already welcoming guests with their Weekend WAHOO! and Family Nights deals, it's one of the best things to do in Florida June 15, 16, 17, 2012 and the perfect time to say, "Go soak yourself Dad." Just kidding there big guy. Uh, Dad,.......... AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

That's right me buckos, it's the 'Gulf Coast Pirate Festival' in Pensacola June 9 - 10. Nothing says family entertainment like a cutthroat pirate and you'll find plenty of'em gathered at their old lair including Captain Dan and the Scurvy Crew - the only Pirate Rap group in the world! So get your own crew together and head on over while the Jolly Roger's still flyin'. June 19th is also National Marina Day and Florida has some of best, so check them out as well for some updated nautical fun. Other Things to do in Florida June 8, 9, 10, 2012 include the "Splish Splash End of School Bash" in Port St. Lucie set for June 9th offering a great way to forget those well known teachers with their well known dirty looks. THAT'S RIGHT MISS BLOOM NAH NAH NAH NAH NAH QUIST! The Astro Skate and Fun Centers are also making the end of school a blast with an 'All Night Skate' at all 3 Florida locations, so roll with it baby! Finally you'll want to help celebrate New Smyrna Beach’s 125th Anniversary with a whole weekend of hoopla planned for one of Florida's favorite beaches.
