Message from the Founder This is how we do it!! Last month, our team was able to get together for our annual franchise retreat. Our 2020 retreat was cancelled due to Covid-19. Our 2020 retreat was scheduled to be at the UF v. FSU football game but that game actually never was scheduled, due to Corona. So, 2021 same plan, just a different matchup.

September Newsletter 2021

Message from the Founder Legislature Changes & Technological Advancements in Florida In June 2019, Florida House Bill 91 was signed, sealed and delivered.
