Joanne Taylor, who has lived in Bartow since she was three years old, would like to see the city once again have places to go for fun, such as the bowling alley, movie theater, and drive-in of former times. Taylor is shown here looking back through the archives at The Polk County Democrat, where she is employed.

Bartow is a great place to live, if the number of second, third and fourth generation Bartowans is any indication.
It’s a city that has managed to keep its historic flavor while moving ahead with the times.
