Sunday is a fun day at Zephyr Park

By

Dozens of families braved the heat and humidity on a recent Sunday afternoon to have some fun at Zephyr Park, 38116 Fifth Ave., in Zephyrhills. The vast 34-acre venue features a waterpark, walking trails, a lake for fishing, tennis courts, picnic shelters and playground equipment. Many areas of the park are shaded by large, Civil War-era oak trees.

After getting the courage to stand on the top of the spiral ladder, 4-year-old Siyanni Alexander, of Dade City, holds on tight as she looks down at her grandfather, Brian Hecker, for encouragement. The pair was enjoying the day at the park, while Siyanni’s mother was at home, recovering from a recent surgery.
