Please join us for a special presentation entitled "Tennis from Baseballs: Sports in Sanford and Seminole County”, by Brigitte Stephenson of the Sanford Museum. She will be speaking to the Seminole County Historical Society in a very unique presentation about how the city of Sanford has always had a fascination with sports, from the “Celery City Tennis Club” of the 1890s, to Tim “The Rock” Raines, a Sanfordite recently inducted into the baseball hall of fame. Come hear Stephenson tell about how sports not only changed the people of Sanford, but the landscape of Seminole County and beyond!
