Sarasota County is an "All America City" Finalist

The National Civic League sponsors the "All America City" Program. Here is a description of the program, taken from the web site at: http://www.ncl.org/aac/

"The All America City Award is America's original and most prestigious community recognition award. Since 1949, the All-America City Award has encouraged and recognized civic excellence, honoring communities of all sizes (cities, towns, counties, neighborhoods and regions) in which community members, government, businesses and non-profit organizations work together to address critical local issues."


Sarasota County is one of 30 finalists. Representatives from the county will be attending the National Civic League conference in Atlanta on June 25th and 26th where the winners will be announced. Good Luck Sarasota County!
