The Florida Sports Commission selected Nathan Benderson Park as the "Venue of the Year" during an awards ceremony last week in Fort Lauderdale. The Sarasota County park, managed by the nonprofit Suncoast Aquatic Nature Center, hosted nearly 50 events in 2014 that drew more than 50,000 athletes and spectators and had an economic impact of more than $12 million. Benderson Park will host the 2015 US Rowing Youth National Championships next month. Rowing Magazine also recognized the park as “The Best Race Course in North America” and Sarasota County won an Alliance for Innovation Award for the project.
