First annual Pasco Sports Fair is a slam dunk

February 26, 2020 By Christine Holtzman

People of all ages looking to experience many different types of sports were in luck on Feb 16.  The first annual Pasco Sports Fair, held on the grounds of Skydive City in Zephyrhills, offered scaled-down or mini versions of sports, such as tennis, basketball, football, soccer, floor hockey, golf, fitness training and virtual skydiving. Many of the stations had former professional athletes overseeing the sporting activities.

Eight-year-old Aidan Johnson, of Tampa, grimaces as he lifts a 10-pound weight over his head. He was testing out his endurance by doing 10-pound squats at the weight-lifting station. The aspiring football player is in third grade at the Academy at the Lakes, an independent school in Land O’ Lakes. (Christine Holtzman)
Don Knobloch, of Wesley Chapel, reacts with delight, when his 5-year-old son, Donny, center, hits a hole-in-one on the golf course. Donny’s younger brother, 3-year-old Landon, is on the left. The family, including mom, Jacquie, were enjoying the afternoon by trying out the different sport stations offered at the first annual Pasco County Sports Fair.
