There are several Memorial Day events in our area this weekend:

Sunday - Lakewood Ranch hosta a parade down Main street. Young residents of LWR will be participating in a decorating contest of their bikes, wagons and scooters. The event includes live music, BBQ, beer and activities for the family. Everyone is asked to bring donations of non-perishable food items to be sent to our military service people overseas.

Monday - Sarasota Memorial Day parade down main street at 10:00 am. Featuring vets and marching bands.

Monday - Salute to Vets concert at Phillippi Park in Sarasota 5 - 7 pm
bring your lawn chairs, $5 per person, children under 12 free

Monday - Venice is hosting a Memorial Day ceremony at 10:00 am at Patriots Park.


For something a little different:

Saturday - downtown Venice - Brew Bash 4 - 8 pm
sample over 80 different beers, live music, tickets required, must be 21 or older

Legoland is opening their splash park this weekend. This is located in Winter Haven at the previous Cypress Gardens park.



I would like to take a minute here to thank all of our service men/women (and their families) for the sacrifices that our Armed Service members make on our behalf.
