History
The town, known as Panasoffkee, or “Valley of Water” in the Native American Language, was settled around 1880. It was known as the largest fruit center in the world. In addition to citrus, sugar cane mills dotted the edge of the lake. Barrels of sugar and syrup were shipped north, along with the oranges. Panasoffkee became an important turpentine and lumber center during the latter part of the 19th century. Several general stores, three hotels, a drug
store, meat market, two active churches, a saloon, and a school came into existence. Winter tourists continued to come for the excellent hunting and fishing. In 1998, the state Legislature created the Lake Panasoffkee Restoration Council to develop a restoration plan for the lake. The 10-year project restored Lake Panasoffkee’s historic fish bedding areas and the historic lake shoreline, and improved navigation. Lake Panasoffkee is one of the Southwest Florida Water Management District’s SWIM Program priority water bodies and is designated as an Outstanding Florida Water by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. Recreation opportunities include bicycling, bird watching, boating and paddling, camping, equestrian use, fishing, hiking, hunting and a pavilion with picnic tables and grills.

airboat ride on Lake Panasoffkee and the spring-fed the Withlacoochee River system.

Airboat tours take you through the most breathtaking scenery mother nature has to offer. See Florida Alligators on your wildlife sightseeing adventure into nature’s swamp lands. Photo opportunities are around every corner. Enjoy the family friendly atmosphere as you are allowed to feed the fish and wildlife that have made the bait and tackle fishing pier their home. Large herons stay on the boat slips and wait for daily feedings, and a local hawk catches fish in mid air. Blue Gills and Largemouth Bass feed as you toss bread from the docks. At times even a local gator shows up to see what’s in it for him or her. 190 CR 488 Lake Panasoffkee, FL 33538 (321) 689-8918

Sumter Communities Sumter County was named for General Thomas Sumter (1736-1832), a native of South Carolina who was prominent in the Southern campaigns of the Revolutionary War. The first settlers arrived in Sumter County in the 1800s, however the county’s official legislature did not meet until January 8, 1853.
The City of Bushnell
Named in honor of J. W. Bushnell, who surveyed the route of the Florida Railway and Navigation Company Railroad, the City of Bushnell was incorporated in 1912, when the courthouse was relocated from Sumterville. Today, the City of Bushnell operates one of the smallest Public Utilities in the State of Florida, providing water, electric, sewer and sanitation services to approximately 2300 homes and businesses. Bushnell is a growing and dynamic community enjoyed by young and old alike. True to its designation as a bird sanctuary, the area abounds in natural beauty. Throughout the year, the City of Bushnell is host to a variety of public events including the “Annual Fall Festival”. Mailing Address P.O. Box 115, Bushnell, FL 33513 Physical Address 117 E. Joe P.

The City of Center Hill
Center Hill’s history dates as far back as 1842. However, it received its official name when Mrs. Carrie Lovell named this little town “Center Hill” as it was in the center of the County and on top of a hill. In the early part of 1900, Center Hill became a “boom” town, and was known as the string bean capital of the world, shipping nearly 400 railroad cars of string beans that year.
The City of Coleman
The community of Coleman was settled in 1882. The city is named for Dr. B. F. Coleman, who is listed in the Florida Gazette in 1886-87 as one of the early citizens. During this time, the main source of revenue was growing and selling oranges, but residents also made a living raising cotton, cattle, sheep and hogs. Today, Coleman is home to the Federal Correctional Complex. The Complex opened in December 1995, providing jobs to more than 1,000 employees. The Complex is located east of Coleman on CR 470, consisting of Low Security. (352) 689-4000, Medium Security/Work Camp (352) 689-5000 and U.S. Penitentiary (352) 689-6000. Mailing Address P.O.

The Town of Oxford
Sometime around 1870, pioneers began to settle in Oxford. On the road south of town, there was a pond that caused problems during the rainy seasons. Travelers were forced to get the help of teams of oxen to cross this section of the road, and this could have led to the name “Ox-ford.” After the 1894-95 freeze, a few families remained in Oxford and they turned to truck farming for a living. Cantaloupes were developed as a quality crop, now tomatoes and hay are raised in and around Oxford.
In 1875 the first church and school were built. Today this is the site of the Royal Volunteer Fire Department, Royal Community Center and the last building used as the Royal school cafeteria, which was built in 1945. This historic building was donated for use by the community as the A. A. Young, Sr. Historical and Enrichment Center of Royal.
The City of Wildwood
Sumterville
Wildwood is known as “the transportation hub” because it’s at the crossroads of four major highways: I-75, U.S. 301, SR 44, and the Florida Turnpike in addition to the CSX Railroad which has a number of trains that pass through daily. It has several large industrial parks to accommodate new industry. The construction of a new City Hall was completed in 2000. A new 110-acre recreational complex is currently being developed in sections and should serves the needs of city residents of all ages for many years to come. A new Community Center/ Storm Shelter was constructed on the 110-acre site and was completed in 2003. The Villages is constructing its final town center “Brownwood” within the city limits of Wildwood, which will bring many new businesses, and residents to Wildwood. Wildwood has annexed 21,644 acres into the city beginning in 2005, making the current total area of the city 26,853 acres in size. Several large residential developments which include commercial/retail are planned within that acreage and awaiting approval. Wildwood is one of the fastest growing cities in Florida with planned, smart growth. 100 N. Main Street, Wildwood, FL 34785 Phone: (352) 330-1330, Fax: (352) 330-1338 Website: www.wildwood-fl.gov
The Community of Royal
Royal was established in 1865 by freed slaves from the old Green Plantation located near the Withlacoochee River. With freedom, slaves were granted 40 acres and a mule to homestead. The first name given this community was Picketsville because of
14
the white picket fences used to designate each slave’s 40 acres parcel. The first industries were farming, logging and turpentine dipping.
The county seat in 1881 was an integral part of Sumter County history. Sumterville Proper is a cozy old village of about 100 inhabitants and has been twice elected the county seat. In the early days a stage line had operated from Tampa to Sumterville. Operations continued when the railroad was built nearby, continuing to transport passengers and freight items. Residents soon learned that the limestone rock covering a large portion of this section was another source of income. Thus, Sumter County furnished crushed limestone rock for road construction, shipping it to distant places.
The City of Webster
Webster was first settled during 1855, making it the oldest incorporated town in Sumter County. The growing and marketing of vegetables was Webster’s main economic base. The Webster area became one of the largest vegetable producers in the state during the early 1900’s and became known as the “Cucumber Capital” and also home of the Parson’s Brown Orange. The Sumter County Farmer’s Market was the result of a group of area farmers organizing a co-op in 1938, in which they could sell their farm products. Livestock sales were held each week along with the sale of vegetables. A flea market began, along with the sale of the farm products, and has become one of the largest flea markets in Florida today. The sale of livestock continues and is one of the few surviving cattle markets in the United States. Mailing Address: P.O.

The Villages
Today, winter tourists continue to flock to the area in order to enjoy the excellent hunting and fishing. Lake Panasoffkee was recently the site of a $28-million restoration project that resulted in restoring the lake’s fisheries and shoreline habitats, and preserving the natural beauty of the lake to ensure that future generations will continue to enjoy this marvelous natural resource for years to come.
Croom-A-Coochee is an unincorporated community in Sumter County, which has grown up adjacent to the Croom Wildlife Management Area (WMA). In addition to Croom, Sumter County offers hunting in the Green Swamp, Richloam, and Half Moon. Additionally, a new area has opened at the northeast end of Lake Panasoffkee. Just north of Sumter County, in Marion County is the Ocala National Forest, which also offers hunting, camping, hiking and horse riding trails, as well as fishing.

It embraces small town charm and intimacy while catering to the active adults’ need for entertainment and recreation. Spanish Springs Town Square, Lake Sumter Landing Market Square, and Brownwood Paddock Square provide three destinations for old-fashioned fun. These turn-of-the-century style town centers bring residents together for shopping, dining and nightly entertainment.

Originally settled around 1880 as simply “Panasoffkee,” it soon became known as one of the largest fruit-shipping centers in the world. In addition to citrus groves, sugar cane mills speckled the countryside. There were many lovely old colonial homes along the groves and plantations where Sea Island cotton, sugar cane, corn and sweet potatoes were also grown. The rivers and woods were teeming with fish and game, and social life centered on these activities.
