Free Webinar Celebrating Sarasota County's 100th Anniversary

Arts & Culture

Friends of Osprey Junction Trailhead and Sarasota County Centennial 2021 partner to present a free webinar celebrating Sarasota County’s 100th anniversary. The online presentation, “The History of Sarasota County”, is scheduled for Thursday, February 11 at 11am. Attendance is free, but you must register to attend. A grant from the Gulf Coast Community Foundation is underwriting this webinar. Discover the intrigue, drama, and perseverance that sparked Sarasota District civic leaders in 1921 to break from Manatee County to create Florida’s 62nd County. Come listen to Dr. Frank Cassell, a nationally known historian, and author of the book “Creating Sarasota County” as he recounts all this and more in an exciting, thought-provoking, and fascinating presentation.
