BRADENTON – TripAdvisor's vacation rental company FlipKey.com recently included Bradenton as one of the "5 MLB Spring Training Destinations that Offer Way More than Baseball."
The area in and surrounding the Friendly City was recognized for having much more than just McKechnie, including Robinson Preserve, the South Florida Museum and Aquarium and the Rosa Fiorelli Winery & Vineyard.
Treeumph Adventure Course, the Bradentown Scoop ice cream and soda parlor, the Village of the Arts and the Astro Skate roller rink were also mentioned as fun activities for baseball fans to consider when taking a spring training trip to our area.
Along with Bradenton, our neighbor Sarasota also made the cut. Clearwater was the other Florida city in the group, while Mesa and Tempe, AZ rounded out the list.
The article also mentioned McKechnie field's recent $10 million upgrades. Click here to read the article in its entirety.
