Presented by Jacob Winge, Historian

Most residents know little of the state’s role during the American Revolution. Public Historian Jacob Winge will fill in the gaps. Florida was a staunchly Loyalist stronghold that served as a critical strategic "backdoor" for Great Britain. Come and learn about the invasion of east Florida, the famous Battle of Thomas Creekand more, Monday, February 23, 10-11:30 at the Manasota Beach Club (MBC), 7660 Manasota Key Road.

Winge is a historian with deep personal ties to Florida who has spent almost two decades sharing Florida's history, stories, and people through Living History programs, Historical reenactments, and school and community programs. His family has lived in the state since the 1870s. Jacob has a long history of civic engagement. He is a member of the Brigade of the American Revolution and the Southern Conference on British Studies, a former Board President of the Friends of the Collier County Museums. He lives in East Naples with his wife Alexandria and daughter Wren. 

Now in its 37th year, the Manasota Beach Club Monday Lecture Series brings together leading voices in Gulf Coast ecology, environmental science, archaeology, and Florida history. Each week, guests explore topics ranging from hurricane recovery and coastal sustainability to the region’s cultural heritage, early folk music, and groundbreaking scientific research.

Hosted on the historic 15-acre Manasota Beach Club property — listed on the National Register of Historic Places — the series continues the Buffum family’s long tradition of community education and stewardship. All are welcome to attend these “lecture and learn” sessions, held on Mondays from 10:00 to 11:30 AM, with light refreshments provided.

Due to limited space, reservations are required.
