How blessed we are to call Boca Grande our island home! Its natural abundance of flora and fauna, beaches and skies of magnificent clouds and sunsets with birds on the wing, are obvious to all. Less obvious are the people who serve us in every area and make the continuing life of our community so rich and vital, such as the personnel of the Gasparilla Inn from management to domestic service, the medical teams of the Boca Grande Chnic, fire and police department members, our maintenance and construction crews, our restaurants and shops, to name a few.
