Sports & Stuff to Do
GOOD SPORTS
Divers discover beauties at reefs and ledges within easy swimming distance from shore, and both divers and snorkelers enjoy the waters of Indian River County. Surfing, boating and fishing are popular, with good reason; the waves and the catches impress observers. Public and private tennis courts with surfaces of all types and a couple of dozen golf courses, some designed by famous links architects, challenge avid golfers. Canoeing, kayaking, hiking, jogging and biking are also popular outdoor activities. Polo your game? The Windsor Polo Club's two fields host local league play, matches to benefit community organizations and tournaments.
STUFF TO DO
There are activities for everyone in Indian River County. If you are a "birder," Indian River County has an incredibly diverse bird population - 310 species - said to be the most varied anywhere in the United States. Ecotourism thrives because of the community's reverence for nature and the natural environment. The county boasts ten garden clubs and organizations, a rather extraordinary number for a small community. For the senior citizens there are unlimited activities. There's bridge, bingo, shuffleboard or table tennis. Not to mention line dancing classes, chartered bus tours and ballroom dancing, all offered by the Recreation Department. For the growing population of young professionals, there are softball teams to join, sports restaurants to take the whole family to, and professional service clubs to network in.
Youngsters like the Environmental Learning Center and the Creative Playground on 17th Avenue. Also well-attended are Spring Easter Egg hunts, and the Children's Art Festival in the fall. The Mashed Potato Players entertain area youth at schools, parks and libraries with their comedy routines, while the Agnes Wahlstrom Youth Playhouse presents a dozen productions annually.
