Out and About: Jars of Clay at Cypress Gardens This Weekend

Summer is officially here and that means it is a great time of year for outdoor concerts. Cypress Gardens kicks off the summer this weekend as they host three great Christian bands: Jars of Clay (three time Grammy award winning Jars of Clay, that is), Need to Breathe and Building 429. The show starts at 6:30 and reserved seats are still available. As always your park admission includes the concert, but reserved seats will cost you a little more.

Here are some more fun events and happenings to keep you busy this weekend. Get out there and enjoy! Check back here early next week for a special edition of “Out and About” with your guide to Fourth of July events in Sunny Central Florida.
