Let's G.O. (Get Outside)

Fishing at Hillsborough River State Park

Enjoy spring at a State Park

Today's kids spend far less time outside than their parents did. For many, tweets are not bird calls but 140-character sound bites. Wii, the electronic game console, has replaced "wheee!" – the squeal of delight. Gather your family and friends and head to a state park for outdoor fun. Picnic, swim, build sand castles or take a hike. Enjoy!
