When I think of Sarasota Florida, the first thing that comes to mind is baseball. I live in Baltimore and the Orioles have their spring training home right there in Sarasota. I think about the Grapefruit League and all the teams that start preparing for their new season under the sunny skies of Florida.
But Sarasota County has more to offer than baseball stadiums. Sarasota County falls just south of Tampa and just north of Fort Myers. I think a lot of folks may overlook this beautiful space of the Sunshine State when flying into other major airports nearby. I’ve been to Florida plenty of times, but it’s always been to Orlando or points further south.
My conversation this week is with Kelly Harb. She’s the Vice President of Marketing and Communications at Visit Sarasota County. Kelly totally opened up my eyes to the wonders of Sarasota. If I’m being honest, Florida isn’t exactly on our trip list at the moment, but I’m going to bump Sarasota up near the top for our next trip. I hope you enjoy my conversation with Kelly Harb.
