  • Geology of Florida Local Abundance of Quartz Sand
    28390_00_cover.qxd 1/16/09 4:03 PM Page 1 Summary of Content The geologic past of Florida is mostly out of sight with its maximum elevation at only ~105 m (in the panhandle) and much of south Florida is virtually flat. The surface of Florida is dominated by subtle shorelines from previous sea-level high-stands, karst-generated lakes, and small river drainage basins What we see are modern geologic (and biologic) environments, some that are world famous such as the Everglades, the coral reefs, and the beaches. But, where did all of this come from? Does Florida have a geologic history other than the usual mantra about having been “derived from the sea”? If so, what events of the geologic past converged to produce the Florida we see today? Toanswer these questions, this module has two objectives: (1) to provide a rapid transit through geologic time to describe the key events of Florida’s past emphasizing processes, and (2) to present the high-profile modern geologic features in Florida that have made the State a world-class destination for visitors. About the Author Albert C. Hine is the Associate Dean and Professor in the College of Marine Science at the University of South Florida. He earned his A.B. from Dartmouth College; M.S. from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst; and Ph.D. from the University of South Carolina, Columbia—all in the geological sciences. Dr. Hine is a broadly-trained geological oceanographer who has addressed sedimentary geology and stratigraphy problems from the estuarine system out to the base of slope.

  • The Hotel Industry of the Florida Panhandle
    JULY 2014 | PRICE $500 IN FOCUS: THE HOTEL INDUSTRY OF THE FLORIDA PANHANDLE Kristin Rinaudo Project Manager John P. Lancet, MAI Director and Partner www.hvs.com HVS Atlanta | 2386 Clower Street, Suite E102, Snellville, GA, 30078 With hotel performance improving, supply in check, and tourism and commercial demand on the rise, hoteliers should pay close attention to possibilities in the Florida Panhandle. Introduction The geography of Florida’s Panhandle region is loosely defined, and so is the makeup of its hospitality market. Certain Panhandle beaches are synonymous with Spring Break, and hotels, motels, and other lodging options have been dug into the coastal markets to serve these transient populations for years. What deserves attention, however, is the growing sophistication of the leisure traveler to the Panhandle, as well as the increased demand in the commercial and military/government segments. The region still presents opportunities for branded hotels, and particularly full-service properties, in select locations. The following article examines transforming economic and hotel demand drivers in the Florida Panhandle, as well as emerging trends in hotel performance. Market Overview and Major Demand Generators The Florida Panhandle is generally accepted as spanning from Florida’s western state line to just east of the capital city of Tallahassee. Alabama and Georgia are to the north, and the Gulf of Mexico lies south. The names of many of the Panhandle’s principal cities evoke the balmy atmosphere, white-sand beaches, and emerald waters so popular with vacationers: Apalachicola, Port St. Joe, Mexico Beach, Tallahassee, Quincy, Niceville, Marianna, Lynn Haven, Panama City, Panama City Beach, Destin, Fort Walton Beach, DeFuniak Springs, Chipley, Crestview, Milton, Gulf Breeze, and Pensacola.

  • Spring Break in the Florida Panhandle, 1938-2018 Nuno F
    The Cultural History of a Break: Spring Break in the Florida Panhandle, 1938-2018 Nuno F. Ribeiro, Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology University, Vietnam Part harmonic convergence, the result of millions of teenagers coming of age in a time of rebellion and affluence, and part hormonic convergence, a coming of age in a society saturated with sexual images, the Florida beach perfectly matched generation and lifestyles. Fort Lauderdale, Daytona Beach, and Panama City Beach were reinvented to fit an American rite of passage. —G. R. Mormino (2005: 316) Introduction In its simplest form, Spring Break is nothing more than a week-long vacation period, typically held in the early spring, recognized as such by administrators of colleges and universities across North America, and providing a respite from classes, exams, and the cold weather. But spring break is also a multi- billion-dollar tourism phenomenon that encompasses the yearly migration of thousands of college students towards a small number of sunny beaches in the Southern United States, chief among them Florida. Spring break is generally associated with the consumption of alcohol in excess, reckless behavior, and a relaxation of sexual mores, in a no-holds-barred atmosphere of unlicensed leisure, or what the New York Times dubbed “Spring Bacchanal” (Marsh 2006). More than forty scholarly articles (for a review, see Ribeiro and Hickerson 2012), and encyclopedia entries (Gianoulis 2000, Ribeiro and Hickerson 2017, Russell 2004) have been published on the topic, in addition to thousands of media pieces, news articles, op-eds, and reports by advocacy and interest groups. Novels, films, television shows, and even a handful of master’s theses and doctoral dissertations have been devoted to spring break.

The Jackson County War: Reconstruction and Resistance in Post-Civil War Florida.. University of Alabama Press, $29.95 ISBN 978-0-8173-1745-4 A Unique Perspective on Reconstruction The Jackson County War recounts the aftermath of the American Civil War in a western county of the Florida panhandle. Daniel Weinfeld's chief inquiry surrounds the nature and frequency of violence, with murder estimates in the county ranging "from close to one hundred to twice that total" between 1869 and 1872 (xi). To explain this hostility, the author proposes a "continuous narrative," starting with key wartime incidents in the county, continuing through emancipation and Reconstruction, and concluding with the cessation of violence in 1872 (xiv). Weinfeld's investigation also "explores the impact on Jackson County of political decisions emanating from Washington and Tallahassee and social and economic developments sweeping the postwar South. In addition, to explain the outbreaks of violence... [this book] shows how the people of Jackson County, Florida, reacted to the unfolding events of Reconstruction....."(xiv).
