Thank you to the Avon Park Historical Society – Depot Museum for hosting our summer luncheon! We enjoyed learning about the history, culture, and community life of Avon Park and surrounding area. The Baseball Museum memorabilia, murals, and interactive displays were especially impressive. We ended our visit with a unique and delicious dining experience in the railroad dining car. We encourage visitors of all ages to stop by!

An enthusiastic crowd of women met Tuesday at the Purple Iris Tea Room in Lake Placid to launch Women Build, a volunteer movement sponsored by Highlands County Habitat for Humanity.

Women Build started because, as Linda Andrews, development manager for Highlands County Habitat for Humanity, explains, there is a large number of single women who are dealing with housing issues nationwide and most of the people who request houses are single moms. She said Women Build is designed to empower women of all ages to volunteer their time to not only to fundraise but to actually help build homes for other women.

Read more about the project in Thursday's Highlands News-Sun.
