Sheryl discovered art early in life and it has been her passion ever since. Following a career in Graphic Design during the last 10 years she has had more time and freedom to explore, create and define her style. Whether painting “en plein air” or in the studio, her work revolves around colorful interpretations of life, nature, and all it has to offer. While always drawing, sketching, and exploring other mediums, Sheryl prefers painting with oil paint on linen or panels. And she is unabashedly hooked on color! Vibrant, thick, juicy brush strokes that sit up and demand attention. Her preferred style is painterly and impressionistic, usually painting alla prima – or in one sitting. With her husband Charlie, they own a local marina, Adventure Yacht Harbor and Boondocks Restaurant on the same property in Wilbur By The Sea. Boats, water and beaches have become recurring themes in her art, along with vacations painting waterfalls in North Carolina, the tropical scenes of The Bahama Islands, and a passion for gardening, flowers and the outdoor landscape. Sheryl is a member of several local and regional Art Associations, Plein-Air Groups and has participated in Plein-Air Paint-Outs around the country. Her paintings can be seen at Boondocks Restaurant in Wilbur By The Sea, in several Florida Galleries, as well as North Carolina, the Bahama Islands and online at sroachstudio.com.
Please enjoy this In-Room Concierge, but leave in the room. If you would like to purchase the book for $24.95, please inquire at the front desk.

Inside this guide to Daytona Beach, Ormond Beach, Daytona Beach Shores, New Smyrna Beach, Ponce Inlet and beyond, we’ve included some suggestions for our favorite things to do at museums, historic landmarks and some places that you may not have heard about.
If you came to escape a hectic lifestyle, we can recommend Tomoka State Park where you can spot wild dolphins in the Intracoastal and Blue Spring State Park where gentle manatees gather in clear spring waters. Get in touch with nature and paddle a pristine creek or explore the ruins of an old British plantation surrounded by ancient oak trees for a nature-made escape.
After you work on your tan and relax around the pool, this could be the year you learn paddle boarding on calm waters, play golf on a championship course or take a cruise on the Intracoastal.
The first visitors came to watch auto and motorcycle races on the hard packed sand beach, but today we welcome one and all to leave your cares behind and enjoy all the entertaining diversions we offer.
We have museums with prehistoric animal skeletons, collections of surfing, art, photography and racing
We hope you take home the best souvenir we can think of—unforgettable memories of good times.

THE HISTORY OF BEACH STREET DAYTONA BEACH, FLORIDA
In the early 1800s, sugar mill plantations, wild animals, snakes, gators and sand were the only things along the Halifax River. By1865, the area called Beach Street in Daytona Beach started collecting pioneers. The Halifax River was the place to settle. In 1870, Matthias Day arrived from Ohio with dreams of building a town. He laid out streets, Beach Street in particular, and the historic street was born. Thompson's home and store were built on Beach Street in 1870. The buildings still stand even though the store is now a home and the home is an office. Old wooden bridges only let horses walk across them. The first middle bridge, (ISB Bridge) was built of wood in late 1800s. It became "the concrete bridge" in 1912, and 1947 and the current four lane beauty was dedicated in 2001. In 1910, the Merchants Bank was built by Charles G. Burgoyne and others. Today, it houses the Halifax Historical Museum. Very little has changed on the outside with the exception of banners announcing the museum. 1925 brought filled in land on Beach Street with shrubbery, fountains and monuments. The gracious Veterans Memorial in Riverfront Park was built in 1938 and graced the park until 1962 when the City of Daytona Beach moved it to Tuscawilla Park on Nova Road. The lawn is now used for outdoor movies and Beach Street events. Change is always inevitable and yet, it’s wonderful to be able to see the past, as well as the future.

DON’T MISS A THING! Explore... beyond the beach!
around the daytona beach area
Y
You are currently in the Daytona Beach area, a most
beautiful destination, plus only a short drive to some local gems and beautiful cities. On the following pages are delightful day trips you won’t want to miss. DeLand for its colorful history, as seen inside and out
on a tour at Stetson Mansion (a TripAdvisor favorite) or by visiting the famous Cassadaga, to get your palm read by an in-residence spiritualist. Check out the Artist Murals that cover the city in little hideaway places and get your photo taken with the ever-popular DeLand Wings. See page 27. Visitors Center: 386-734-0162 Flagler Beach is north between St. Augustine and Daytona Beach. The A1A Scenic Highway drive will simply take your breath away. The Fairchild Oak, one of the largest live Oak trees in the South, is hidden in an old hammock and is truly a site to behold. Enjoy lunch at the old Flagler Pier and then maybe hike some trails at the Washington Oaks Park. See page 28. Visitors Center: 386-313-4230 New Smyrna Beach is half an hour south. Quaint, artsy, laid back. If you are lucky, be sure to catch a Saturday Night stock car race at the New Smyrna Speedway. Take your dog to Smyrna Dunes Park to swim. Only a few places allow this, and your fur friend will have a ball. See page 29. Visitors Center: 386-428-1600 St. Augustine is an hour north. Truly special, it is the oldest continuously occupied city in the US. The bricks, the buildings, the statues will all take you back in time. Flagler College Tours showcase days gone by. Churches with fascinating histories are on many corners of this old city. Shopping on Aviles St. and St. George St., you are sure to find quality souvenirs to bring home. See page 30 & 31.
