Synopsis
In 1911, Ohio entrepreneur George E. Sebring was drawn to the raw south-central Florida peninsular wilderness, known for bountiful fishing and game. After cofounding Sebring, Ohio, in 1898, he envisaged another eponymous town that would attract new residents to this largely unsettled area located 30 miles from the nearest railroad depot. The businessman purchased 9,000 acres on the shore of Lake Jackson, and his new town was designed and surveyed between October 1911 and April 1912. By virtue of its location along the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad, the community of Sebring emerged as a novel tourist and golfing destination and was established as the seat of newly formed Highlands County in 1921. Cultural and technological advances have transformed the once-rural community into a thriving modern city that today retains its small-town atmosphere as the City on the Circle. Susan Priest MacDonald is a graduate of Sebring High School, and her family called Sebring home for 35 years. She and husband Randall M. MacDonald have long been intrigued by the city's history and tales. These vintage photographs, drawn from the collections of the Sebring Historical Society, evoke a time when enthusiasm for the new settlement reached its apogee and when families relocating from established areas carved a community out of the wilderness.
