Dear Editor:
This year we’ve made amazing strides towards making our new Maritime Archaeology and Education Center a reality. Over the past five years we’ve raised over two million dollars to improve exhibitions, restore the historic site, purchase the Light Station and serve more senior citizens and children than ever before.
Historic City News can’t avoid reporting when “something bad” happens; as BBC reporter George Orwell once explained, “Journalism is printing what someone else does not want printed: everything else is public relations.” However, an incident involving personnel from the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office on Sunday restores our faith that there actually are some happy endings out there.
Historic City News was informed that the Knights of Columbus, Switzerland Council 12664, brought fun, comfort, and joy to the residents of St. Francis House last Saturday night; residents who get very few opportunities to get in the holiday spirit.
Three of four litigants in a lawsuit filed against the City of St Augustine in federal court in June 2015, told Historic City News that they are pleased so many local artists turned out today during a protest held to raise awareness of what they claim is an unconstitutional intrusion on their First Amendment right of free expression.
