Did you know about Jackson’s Landing? A nice little fishing dock at Freedom Lake Park here in Pinellas Park, dedicated to the Bill and Harriet Jackson “Mr. and Mrs. J”
It was dedicated to them September 14, 2015!
It’s a nice little spot right behind the store where walkers and runners can take a nice little break or in the evenings watch a beautiful sunset. It also serves as a nice little place where families can go fishing together.
If you are at the store or at Freedom Lake Park, you should check it out and spend a little time enjoying the nature that’s around you in such a busy town.
Also checkout more of Bill Jackson’s History.
We have been around for 80 years!
