Sarasota County Civic League

Dear Members:

The incoming officers and board members and I are excited about the year to come and we have a lot of great new ideas for programs. We are committed to making better use of our website to further expand on the message of civic engagement. We want to try and bring in more members and guests this year and continue to be one of the best welcome wagons in town.

The year of 2012 will be another very interesting election year. We plan to put on another great Candidate School. We will continue to find ways to support, motivate and enhance the community we live in following in the over 52 year-long tradition of the Sarasota Civic League.

Thank you all for your support. Thank you for being civic-minded. Thank you for letting me serve as President this year of this very distinguished, influential and fine organization.

Looking forward to good days ahead.

Elizabeth M. Boyle, President

Upcoming Events:

With the recent easing of travel restrictions, many speculate that there is a sea change afoot in U.S.-Cuban relations including the possibility of overturning the trade embargo in place since 1963. Recent polls have shown that a majority of Americans were in favor of re-establishing diplomatic relations with Cuba, ending the travel ban that prevents most Americans from visiting Cuba, and lifting the trade embargo. Join us at our annual luncheon meeting Tuesday, May 15, 2012, 11:30 am, Marina Jack's, Sarasota Bay Front, where we will hear from an expert on the economic impact the Cuban embargo, Dr. Tim Lynch, former Director of the Center for Economic Analysis of Florida State University who will discuss his study on "The Economic Impact on the U.S. Economy of Lifting the Cuban Embargo"
