Tallahassee served as Florida's First Capitol because it was located midway between St. Augustine…read moreand Pensacola. Lawmakers needed a central location as the journey from east Florida to west Florida was treacherous during the early 1800s. On a mission to find a mutually agreeable location, two sets of explorers met midway at former abandoned Native American settlement known as Anhaica. This became early Tallahassee which means Old Town (Talia+Hasi) in Creek/Seminole. The first Florida Capitol was a log cabin built in 1824. One hundred years later, a temporary replica was built. Another temporary full sized replica was built in 1974 for the sesquicentennial celebration. My dad was on that committee which inspired him to advocate for building a permanent replica for the bicentennial celebration in 2024. It was so interesting to hear about the process of building this most recent First Florida Capitol replica. So many people donated their time and energy. From sifting through historical records, to creating authentic floor plans when few existed, to donations of logs, to getting permits, it was a challenging to bring this project, a dream for my dad, to life. Having grown up in Tallahassee, I have always loved Florida history. It is nice to see a piece of history being brought back to life and to have my family play a role in that legacy. Florida is so different from when my grandparents moved to south Florida a century ago in the 1920s. I am happy to see history preserved while the city and state continue to grow. #2900

One of the best areas in Tallahassee right here! Cascades Park is a beautiful and sprawling park &…read moreleisure area close to downtown that's perfect for a walk, run, family outing or other activities in the fresh air. There are walking paths that loop around and through and must go for several miles. They have a small amphitheater in the middle where I'm sure there are performances and concerts here and there. A big splash pad is on one side, and I know the kiddos love that especially on a warmer day. They have a big playground on the other side, and there are some bathrooms as well just in case. Intertwined are some pond/ creek areas that add to the beauty of this park. It's a super lovely walk around, and my favorite part are the pillars towards one end that tell the history of Tallahassee- racial tensions, civil war and repair and more. It brings more light onto the capitol city and its roots.

This is a small little playground located just off of the Cascades Park trail. It seems relatively…read morenew and has a very nice restroom facility and water fountains. There is street parking available to park visitors. The playground is laid on a rubbery, mud-free surface. The playground's equipment is modern and includes a supernova merry go round, saucer swing, a bank of traditional swings, a bank of toddler swings, teeter tooters, a spiral pole slide, a corkscrew climber, and a massive net climber. There is seating on low retaining walls for caregivers to watch their littles play and a little open space for littles to play catch. I really like this playground and would put it slightly in the category of being a destination playground. It is well maintained, has some modern equipment, and offers water and a restroom. I highly recommend checking this playground out if you are in the area.

Picnic pavilions, swimming pool, tennis courts, softball fields and much, much more make up Myers Park. Plenty of shade is provided by the canopy trees throughout the park. A notable mention was the horse shoe throwing area that had horse shoes ready to throw! I actually threw a dead ringer within a couple of throws! The park is relatively large and with what seems to be ample parking. Located in an older residential part of Tallahassee, Myers Park seems to be a great place to throw a BBQ or birthday party or simply to get out and meander around the densely wooded acreage which is very beautiful.

One of the best ways to get out and spend a Saturday night in Tallahassee at a RollerGirls bout!…read more If you show up early enough before the matches, you may just get the chat to meet some of the players and hear more about the sport of roller derby! It's a fast paced sport with lots of unique rules, so it was wonderful to have the knowledgeable explanations from the team and refs! I've been coming to matches off and on for years and I love that I recently got the opportunity to introduce so many friends to roller derby and, hopefully, make some new fans of the team and sport! Once things get rolling, all the players are bolting by and it's a lot to take it! I definitely needed to watch at least a couple matches before I got the hang of the rules and scoring. It's a hard hitting sport and definitely not for the faint of heart! But it's so fun to watch and I now look forward to the next bout each month! Plus, if you're not ready to go home after, there's always a social, where you can hang out with both teams and chat more about the game. Shout out to the ref Eve for teaching us so much about the sport after the last match! Just trust me and try it out! Matches here are so much fun and I know you'll become a fan in no time!

Great location with tons of parking in empty lots nearby for the huge Tallahassee Rollergirls…read moreturnouts! ***Definitely bring a lawn chair if you'd like a seat and a few dollars to buy ducks for Chuck a Duck.*** I was excited to see that the venue was able to sell beer, sodas, and snacks for the roller derby events - and they even went beyond my expectations by having the Mac Shack food truck right outside the front door for the convenience of the hungry derby fans! As for the downside, the whole place kinda smells like a locker room, and as a certified non-athlete myself, that caught me off my guard a bit, but it's not a deal breaker and I'll definitely come back for more roller derby events. Based on the signage inside, it looks like this venue is also home to a kid's hockey league too. The speakers were pretty loud, but the expansive venue made it nearly impossible to understand the announcer for 90% of the event - especially while the game was in play - which is sad because the announcer, in his awesome sequined blazer, looked like a fun guy who'd be exciting to listen to. It also took someone telling me where the scoreboard was, which, for the derby meets, was set up on on a projector screen at the far end of the rink. It's a big place with a lot going on, so I didn't spot it on my own right away. For newish roller derby fans like myself, it's definitely best to check out the rules on the Women's Flat Track Derby Association site so you have an idea of what's going on. I'm glad the roller derby gals have such a sweet venue for their games and I look forward to getting back to this location again!

I enjoyed walking the trail and overall, thought it was a great park to head towards if you are in the Tallahassee, Florida area. I was here about three o'clock or maybe three thirty and the park had quite a few people on the property. I had to look up who Fred George was. It turns out that he was a game warden. He was also a farmer and property owner in Leon County, Florida. He was born in 1890 in Georgia, but moved to Tallahassee as a young boy. Fred George passed away in 1983 at the age of ninety-three. But it is in this park that his name and memory lives on. I would definitely recommend a visit here.
