Our next Travel Massive is sponsored by Sarasota County, Florida! On Wednesday, August 31, from 6:30 - 8:30 PM, join us for cocktails and hors d'oeuvres with a Sarasota flair to learn more about the award-winning Gulf Coast destination.
As summer melts away, sunny Sarasota is just a quick flight from DC. Known for its spectacular white sand beaches, the county's cultural and culinary scenes are just as impressive as its shoreline, featuring:
Florida’s Cultural Coast: Travelers to Sarasota can enjoy a performance at Gulf Coast Florida’s only professional ballet company or the famous Sarasota Opera House, having just completed the iconic Verdi Cycle this year. Sarasota is also home to The Ringling, the mansion and art collection of John Ringling, boasting the world's largest miniature circus.
Sand as White as Snow: Siesta Beach, voted #3 U.S. beach by TripAdvisor, just received a $21.5 million improvement including new playgrounds for children and a renovation of a Sarasota School of Architecture pavilion.
Family Fun For All: From canoeing through Oscar Scherer State Park to animal encounters at Big Cat Habitat and Mote Aquarium, Sarasota offers a range of family activities and fun for all ages. The county's Venice Beach is also known as the "Shark's Tooth Capital of the World," where little explorers can dig for shark's teeth.
