BEGINNING IN THE MID 1950'S
Sawgrass Recreation Park was previously a fishing camp. Over the next 30 years it transformed from a fishing camp, into a one boat airboat attraction in the 1970's and finally became one of South Florida's top destinations for visitors in the new millennium. In 2005, shortly after Hurricane Wilma hit, the Soverns' family acquired Sawgrass Recreation Park. Since then, the park has expanded the exhibit areas to allow for the adoption and rescue of more reptiles and mammals. Sawgrass has also expanded community relations, offering an annual scholarship to a local student, and forging partnerships with local schools to educate students about the Florida Everglades.
