School is almost out, and the May edition of Business Buzz is packed with summer plans for families, businesses, and travelers alike. This issue is your one-stop guide to summer programming for kids across Columbia County, including 4-H day camps, Florida Gateway College’s Timberwolf sports and STEM camps, Richardson Community Center’s summer program, library events for tweens and teens, and a brand-new Family Dance Party series at The Woods.
We’re also celebrating a new chapter for local entertainment with The Spacestation, the Lake City arcade now opening its doors to summer field trips and hosting its first-ever cosplay event. And our Business Spotlight goes to Endureed, the Lake City manufacturer that has spent 25 years pioneering engineered synthetic thatch and now has roofs on projects in more than 45 countries, including resorts built by Disney, Four Seasons, Royal Caribbean, and Universal Studios.
If you’re looking for a quick getaway before the busy season hits, we’ve also rounded up six standout state parks within driving distance and tipped our hat to The Station RV Resort just up I-10.
