Here is a photo of our table at Florida Fest (formerly Cracker fest) at Erna Nixon Park in Melbourne on Saturday.  David Paterno, Yvonne Shingler and yours truly gave out approximately 175 Historical Commission Information Packets and a like amount of our new Fall/Winter “Indian River Journals”.  The Fest was a very enjoyable and educational event.  The new IRJs arrived Friday afternoon and are being distributed.  Let me know how many you need.
