Last week on the way to church I decided to go to downtown Sebring. A quaint, charming, old Southern town with lots of charm.
Sebring was establish in 1912 by George Sebring a pottery manufacturer from the Village of Sebring in Ohio.
This year is the towns Centennial and the city has events planned to celebrate it all year long.
Sebring is the home of the Sebring International Raceway, created on a former Airbase first used in l950. It is currently known as the host of the 12 Hours of Sebring, an annually held American LeMans Series race. People come from all around the world; one of the famous people who raced here was Paul Newman.
It is nickname the "City on the Circle" which is home to the downtown historic district. There is a beautiful park in the center with a circle drive around it and side streets coming off the circle
resembleing a wheel.
