The Scenic Sumter Heritage Byway
Corridor Management Entity (CME) is a partnership of
elected officials, private citizens, business
representatives and technical advisors who recognize the
importance and value of the cultural, historic,
recreational, natural and scenic resources located along
our 62-mile Byway.
The Byway winds
through Sumter County from the Van Fleet Trail on SR 50
north through the county, ending at SR 44 at the
Withlacoochee River and the Sumter/Citrus county line.
The Scenic Sumter Heritage Byway was designated
on May 2, 2013 as the 24th Florida Scenic Highway.
Our mission is to promote and protect the natural
beauty, recreational potential and outstanding
historical resources and traditions of the byway for
residents, visitors and future generations.
The Scenic Sumter Heritage Byway is launching a Donor
Brick Program to help offset costs of informational
kiosks that will be placed throughout the key areas
along the byway. We invite you to help “pave the way” to
helping us with this project and to prominently display
a personalized engraved brick under a designated kiosk.
This is a wonderful way to commemorate an
individual or business to permanently have a lifetime
legacy throughout Sumter County. You can honor a loved
one, family, child, pet or organization, or advertise
your business with your donation. Please see the
ordering information below that will enable you to order
one of these commemorative bricks. Your donation will be
tax deductible under our 501(c)(3) organization.
