Hello Everyone.
Evelyn here,
The unveiling of Governor Charlie Crist’s new portrait at the St. Petersburg Museum of History went off a planned. Joining the governor for the unveiling was his family including his father, Dr. Charles Joseph Crist, who just turned 75 years old, Mayor Rick Baker and his wife, and members of the St. Petersburg Museum’s Board of Trustee. In addition and in attendances, to celebrate Governor Crist’s accomplishments were other city officials, members of the governor’s staff, and employees of the Attorney General Office, who worked with Governor Crist during his years as Attorney General. The Governor’s portrait will be a permanent exhibit in the museum’s lobby.
Although the unveiling of Governor Crist new portrait was free to the public, the “Barbeque on the Bayou” was a $75 per person fundraising affair held on the Southside of the city at the Rutland/Farley Estate. The funds raised by the barbeque will go to the Education and Operations department, which will use a portion of the funds to model the interior of the museum. At the Rutland/Farley Estate, there was a live Blues band playing at poolside and the dinner of barbeque ribs, baked chicken, baked beans, salads and pecan pie was catering by Lee Roy Selmon’s restaurant.

All in the entire event was a huge success and this Cinderella would not have missed it for the world.
