Yes, the first Publix building is still in use downtown. No longer a Publix of course. Winter Haven has done a right fair job of paving every square inch they could. Not much going on in that area but parking these days...lol

I spend the winter months very close to Winter Haven. I'll be doing some MD when I get back.

Winter Haven Newbie

Badpenny, just got my first detector this Christmas. I live in Winter Haven if you are still looking for someone, and don't mind someone who knows nothing then maybe we could meet

I realize this is an old thread, but I'm in Winter Haven, too! I'm new to MDing, and a very willing learner. If anyone from WH is still around and still looking for company, please respond. Thanks.

Yup the original Publix is in Winter Haven and is now a thrift store and you can see the word Publix tiled into the floor. I used to live in Alturas/Bartow and I never saw anyone with a metal detector in Polk county. I bet there is stuff to find where you see those huge 150 year old live oaks.
