Join us for a night of friends, food, and frivolity! Enjoy a wonderful evening with Fred Cleveland as the MC, music by the Saxman (with dancing), amazing food and beverages, and other suprises!
At this event, we are pleased to recognize two outstanding New Smyrna Beach residents who have given their heart, soul and their unwavering commitment to our community: Buddy Davenport as Lifetime Philanthropist and Jack Travis as Volunteer Extraordinaire.
Buddy Davenport sponsors numerous events for a long list of non-profits. His commitment also extends to improving the town’s infrastructure, serving as the Chairman of the Board for the Utility Commission as well as Commissioner of the Florida Inland NavigationDistrict. As friends and family will attest, “Buddy is a force of nature.”
Jack Travis has been a dedicated volunteer with Habitat for many years. Following HurricaneIan, Jack shifted his focus rebuilding homes for 200 displaced families. As one grateful recipient told me, “Jack is just about the kindest man I know.”
All proceeds from the event will go directly to Smyrna Cares, which is an all-volunteer 501C-3 charity based in New Smyrna Beach, Florida. Its mission is to help families who either work or live in New Smyrna Beach to bridge the financial gap during a temporary crisis.
