Chairs and blankets for comfort at the firework show The historic Gator Club on Main and S. Lemon hosted its first 4th of July Block Party from 5 PM - 12 AM with live bands and a DJ, corn hole, street vendors and food trucks. The party was geared for 21 and over but many families attended earlier in the day. A firework show was held on the bay front at 9:00 PM with thousands in attendance, and with road closures for safety many people enjoyed the show from the John Ringling Causeway.

We spent a weekend in Sarasota. Here's what we saw | Letter

Kudos to Sarasota for providing a clean, safe city for us this past weekend.

We attended the Five Points Park block party on Friday, July 3,

There was lots of family friendly activities and live music.

We stayed at a downtown hotel.

The next morning we passed the park on our way to breakfast, and it was in pristine condition.

We enjoyed meals at great restaurants, and we had an easy walk to the fireworks on the Bay.

The streets were clean.

The plantings along the streets and sidewalks enhanced our strolls through town.

We will return for the theaters and opera.
