Lake Eustis puts on interesting things at the park including music festivals, Veteran’s events including hundreds of paratroopers landing in the lake, but this year we were able to catch the Spring Showdown. Southern Outlaw Drag Boat Association put up a $12,500 purse to entice competitors to put on the heat. Hundreds of people lined the lake in Ferran Park to watch the races. Vendors and children’s events were also part of the day’s activities. Sponsors for the event included, Eustis Florida, Duke Energy, Rod Van Dykes State Farm, AWP Site Development LLC, Liles Land Management LLC, Crazy Gator, Turf Tech, Shelley’s Environmental, Grow with the Flow Irrigation & Landscaping LLC, Crossroads 44 Music & Sports Bar, Time Machine, Foxtail Coffee Company, Mortgage Financial Group Inc, Yooper Lube & Wash, All American Construction Services, Central Home Roofing and Solar, and American Services. Eustis is a beautiful lake front city that uses the pretty Ferran Park and amphitheater to bring entertainment to all.
