The Florida Department of Environmental Protection's Washington Oaks Gardens State Park will host a Winter Solstice Sunrise Celebration 7 a.m. Saturday, Dec. 21.
Winter Solstice traditions started with a fear that the fading daylight would never return unless humans kept watch and celebrated the seasonal change. And Park Services Specialist Joseph Woodbury will share his knowledge of the myths and legends about the winter solstice and help guests track the movement of the sun throughout the year.
The program will take place on the beachside of Washington Oaks Gardens, 6400 N. Oceanshore Blvd. Regular park fees apply. Chairs will be provided.
