Growing Up in Old Florida: Stories from PiersonStep back into Old Florida with D. Gray Leonhard, current Mayor of Pierson, as he shares stories of growing up in one of West Volusia’s most historic rural communities. Drawing from his years as an officer with the Florida Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission, Gray offers a firsthand look at the people, places, and traditions that shaped Florida long before rapid development transformed the state. From backroads and small-town life to his experiences serving on the planning commission and as Mayor of Pierson, this engaging Lunch & Learn explores the rich heritage, character, and changing landscape of Old Florida through the eyes of someone who has lived it.
Cost is $15 and includes lunch of Publix deli wraps: turkey, Italian, ultimate, and vegetarian, along with chips, water, fruit and dessert.
Food selections are made at the event, but reservations are requested in order to prepare the appropriate number of lunches. Call 386-740-6813.
