Last week, Leadership Polk Class XIX had a blast exploring Southeast Polk! 🍊💐Through stops at HEART Village hunger education & resource training, Dundee Citrus Growers Association, Nucor Steel Florida, Bok Tower Gardens, Kegel Training Center, and Chemical Containers, Inc., class members saw firsthand how adaptation is a key to success across industries. Along the way, community leaders joined the class on the bus to share the region's history and insights on economic development efforts. The City of Frostproof's Mayor, Michael Hutto, even joined us for a brief tour of the city! The class ended their day in Downtown Lake Wales for a look at the City's downtown revitalization projects and a Taste of Lake Wales, featuring snacks and treats from local businesses. Thank you to our Day Chairs, Deena Drumgo, with the City of Lake Wales, and Rob Quam, with the Lake Wales Care Center, for a wonderful day! 🤩 ... See MoreSee Less
