The Brighton Reservation is one of six reservations of the Seminole Tribe of Florida. It is located in Glades County just west of Okeechobee, Florida. Consisting of 36,000 acres it is the second largest reservation of the tribe and is the main area for the Seminole Tribe's cattle operations which is the 12th largest cattle operation in the United States.
"To serve the Seminole cattle business, "The Red Barn" was built in 1941 with help from the Civilian Conservation Corps." (copied from Wikipedia)
The Red Barn is the location for the coordinates used in this waymark posting due to its central location, historical significance, and being listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Other places of interest on the reservation are the Seminole Brighton Bay Casino and Gaming Center and the Veterans Building honoring all veterans and the five branches of service.
