Description

The area was founded in 1884 by two brothers who established vast lemon groves. One-acre “city lots” were platted and recorded to create a downtown section, which was surrounded by ten-acre “grove lots” designed to provide for future permanent residents. In later years, a prosperous lumber industry also flourished. The greatest attraction was, and still is, its appeal as a growing residential area with long stretches of white sand beaches.

“After living in Charlotte County for over 40 years I thought I knew everything about our community. What I learned from Leadership Charlotte was that I only knew the big picture. Leadership exposed me to the important details about our community — those details that include the people of our community, the resources of our community and the absolute beauty of our community that we tend to take for granted.
