Orlando, FL – Season 10 of WUCF's award-winning series Florida Road Trip continues closer to home with the premiere of the Winter Park episode Thursday, September 19.
“Feedback from our audience last season emphasized their appreciation of WUCF traveling the entire state of Florida while also sharing a desire to continue sharing stories from our backyard of Central Florida,” said Heather Bailey, Executive Producer of Florida Road Trip. “The Winter Park episode is an example of our commitment to revisit locations while uncovering new stories and interviews that bring the city’s history to life.”
This episode visits some of the most notable locations such as Rollins College, the Charles Hosmer Museum of American Art, and the Hannibal Square Heritage Center. Each story reveals a bit of the city’s history as well as explores the story behind the peacock imagery seen throughout Winter Park.
Viewers can also discover additional stories not featured in the broadcast on the Florida Road Trip YouTube including the Mister Rogers' Neighborhood Walking Tour available on the Rollins College campus. Join the Ride as Florida Road Trip takes viewers around the state in Season 10 from the panhandle to the east coast and down to Tampa Bay.
