If it's done right, it will bring in stories from different parts of Florida into a central hub, similar to what we've done here in Lincolnville.
Regina Gale PhillipsGUEST
We tell stories from all over St. Johns County, and people come here and they can see those stories.
Regina Gale PhillipsGUEST
Then they can go out to the individual sites within the county and see some of the locations that we talk about.
Regina Gale PhillipsGUEST
So it should be comprehensive in that way that it tells a story that will weave together the history of the state of Florida in a way that will make people want to visit those other locations.
Danny RiveroCORRESPONDENT

Regina Gale PhillipsGUEST
