So much so, he is enrolled in all of their summer programs. Hidden along Old Dixie Highway in Vero Beach, you could easily pass the place if you're not paying attention. But once inside, you'll quickly learn why The Field House is a premier indoor baseball and softball - or more appropriately stated - a sports specific type facility. A fully equipped facility, they offer cardio equipment like treadmills and bike, a fully turfed training area with lots of running space, and several indoor batting cages with a hitting and pitching area. From the outside this place looks deceptive, but they've used every square inch of space inside. Baseball for the boys and softball for the girls with Coach Holly. My daughter Kate was into softball in Fort Lauderdale and is interested in starting the program. The Field House even has a speed and agility program for those wanting to take their game to the next level. Personal training is a plus, but how does an older guy like me ask someone much younger to train them? Any ideas? Clean facilities - including a well-stocked bathroom. Energy bars and similar food items available if you've forgotten yours at home. Parking out front and to the side, just pay attention as this place is easy to miss as you travel north or south on Old Dixie Highway. William E. Lewis Jr. Vero Beach, Florida

If you are looking for a baseball facility to get reps in and train this is it, don't waste your time anywhere else. Thank you for being so welcoming! Sincerely, The Seda's

Indian River Historical Society

This place is small, quiet, and absolutely stacked with real history. The Indian River Historical…read moreSociety doesn't try to entertain you, it educates you. You'll find Vero Beach before it was condos and brunch. Railroad maps that explain how the coast was built, citrus groves and train lines in miniature, WWII Naval Air Station artifacts that don't sugarcoat the cost of training, and Dodgers history that proves this town once mattered on a national stage. The class photos alone feel like flipping through the town's original family album. No flash, no gimmicks. Just well-preserved stories, artifacts, and context. If you care even a little about how this place became what it is, this is worth your time.

The Indian River Historical Society is a non profit 501c founded in 1983. Their mission is to…read more"save, preserve, and restore the historical and environmental resources of Indian River County." The Historical Society owns two properties. The Halstrom House was built in 1909 by Swedish immigrant Axel Hallstrom, who farmed pineapples on this farmstead. The house is a museum and the surrounding 100 acres is being restored as a conservation area. The Historical Society also owns the Vero Beach Railroad Station & Exhibit Center. In 1984 they purchased the 1903 railroad station from the Florida East Coast railway for $1, moved it, and embarked on their first restoration project. There are only 8 of Henry Flaglers railway depots left in existence. There is one in Sawfish park in Jupiter and another one in the St. Lucie County Regional History Center in Fort Pierce. The stations are easy to spot because of their bright yellow color. The Vero Beach Railroad Station and grounds opened in 1987 and serves as the office of the Indian River County Historical Society and as the Exhibit Center. The Vero Beach Railroad Station was the first building in Indian River County to be listed on the National Register of Historic Places in January of 1987. The Historical Society hosts events throughout the year including movie nights, high tea, ghost hunts, and a Swedish Christmas at the Halstrom House. I recently caught up with them at the Tangelo House in Vero Beach where they were running a tour of the historic 1920's Tangelo apartments that were recently restored. They gave me a great map of the different historical sites in Indian River County. Staffed by volunteers I appreciate everything they are doing to keep history alive for future generations.

Old fashion game tokens and "tickets" if you win, make sure you put a $20 bill into the token machine for "bonus" tokens. A quarter each, but 100 tokens for $20, your kids will have 25% more fun. Overall a clean place and friendly staff. Only "complaint" is the occasional broken machine - something you might not learn until after you put tokens into the machine. With three kids, 7, 7, and 11, this can become frustrating at times. Air hockey is a plus as the better your kids are at playing the game, the longer your twenty lasts. "Tickets" can be traded for candy or little trinkets at the end of your visit. They can also be collected between visits and saved for a bigger prize later on. Located in the food court section of the Indian River Mall, close to the restrooms and water fountains. Mall location provides tons of parking. /s/ William E. Lewis Jr.

When you feel like a big kid and want to win some fun prizes, this is a great place to do it at. :-)read more

This place tells the story of how oranges built towns. Old packing tools, grove photos, crate labels, advertising art, and models of early packing houses show how citrus went from grove to rail to the rest of the country. You see the labor, the tech, and the branding that put Indian River fruit on the map long before modern agribusiness took over. No fluff. Just the industry that shaped this region, one orange at a time. Worth the stop if you like local history with real context.

We learned a lot about citrus farming from the docent.
