Scott to Stick It to State Parks

Pre-dawn light begins to break over the beautiful sandy beaches of Perdido Key.

More than 50 state parks in Florida are set to close by the summer in an effort to help close the more than $3.6 billion budget hole.

From Perdido Key State Park in Pensacola to Fort George Island Cultural State Park in Jacksonville–these are among 53 parks included on a list presented to state lawmakers by the Department of Environmental Protection.

The 53 parks identified had about 1.1 million visitors in last year, representing a little more than 5 percent of the 20.1 million visitors that went to Florida state parks.
