President’s Report

As mentioned in April’s report, I will provide an overview of out Legislative Conference April 1-3, 2025.

We were honored to have 80 participants from the Treasure Coast make the trek to Tallahassee. We stayed at the Doubletree Hotel which is conveniently located within walking distance of the Capitol.

We were graced by the great former President of the Senate Ken Pruitt presiding as our moderator. The conference was held in the Old Capitol Building. We heard from several guest speakers beginning with Melanie Griffin, former Secretary of FL DPBR & Alex Kelly, Florida’s Secretary of Commerce. Of course, we heard from our Legislative Delegation; Senators Gayle Harrell & Erin Grall and Representatives Overdorf, Trabulsy, Snyder & Brackett.

Following the presentations there were several tours available; they included a Tour of FSU, or the Capitol, Tallahassee Museum, the chamber galleries or a tour of the Law Library.

We attended a Cocktail Reception at the Doubletree to end the festivities for the day and began Thursday morning with a closing breakfast at the Doubletree.

We scheduled the 2026 Legislative Conference for January 19-21, 2026.

Please mark the dates and plan to attend the conference next year!!
