Coinciding with the Fourth of July, a sales-tax holiday will provide tax breaks on a wide range of recreation activities and outdoor gear.

The Fourth of July weekend calls for all sorts of items such as grills, canoes, camping gear or event tickets.

The governor said it was the largest tax relief package in Florida’s history.

DeLand police are seeking help locating a 23-year-old man wanted in connection with a June 19 shooting.

Starting Thursday, in what lawmakers dubbed “Freedom Week,” people will receive sales-tax breaks when they make a wide range of purchases that could help spur them to be more active after being limited by the coronavirus pandemic.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a tax relief package into law that includes the state’s first-ever Freedom Week and extends the state’s Back to School tax-free period.

The new tax-free period during the first week of July eliminate sales tax on things like museum tickets, fishing and camping gear, bicycles, kayaks and surfboards.
