Summary

This park is relatively unknown by the locals!  It has over a mile of Boardwalks and several other trails as well.  Also boasts an Observation Tower where one can observe all of Sawgrass Lake from one vantage point!  We will meet near  my house in Harris Park neighbor hood and carpool to the park.  Its about 5 minutes from my house.  I was told we will be guaranteed to see at least one Crocodile!  There is also an extensive outdoor Arboretum for us to explore.  This event will last about 2 hours or so.  Dogs on a leash are allowed but discouraged.  If there is interest we can also ride our bikes to the park!  :-) Leave a note on the sign up page if you would like to bike to the park.  Unless everyone wants to then we will go by car.  Nobody should feel excluded if they don't want to bike!  This is meant to be a relaxing hike.

Directions To Trailhead Parking Lot

We will meet at the instersection of 5th st south and 13 ave s in downtown St Pete.  From I-275 take the exit for I-175 and head into town.  This will drop you out onto 4th st.  go south , a right turn , and then look for 13th ave s on your right.  Go one block on 13th and you will be at 5th st south.  For GPS users you can use 510 13th ave s 33701.  This is a sparsely populated area with a lot of vacant land so you will have no trouble finding us.  I will be wearing an orange sweatshirt or t-shirt that says B-S-B Groundskeeping.
