Triple R Horse Rescue invites the community to its 11th Annual “Have a Heart for Horses” Fundraiser & Gala on February 28 at The Homestead Barn in Monticello. This unforgettable evening features a breathtaking live performance by equestrian artist Sandra Beaulieu and her Lusitano stallion Rovandio, who will create a painted masterpiece in real time — a rare fusion of horsemanship, artistry, and musical expression. Guests will also enjoy gourmet dining by EP Designs, live music and dancing with Baby Gray, and a vibrant silent auction supporting Triple R’s lifesaving work.

Since 2009, Triple R has rescued, rehabilitated, and rehomed more than 550 horses, donkeys, and mules across North Florida and South Georgia. With no publicly funded equine shelters in the region, the organization relies entirely on volunteers, foster ranches, and community support to respond to cases of abuse, neglect, abandonment, and owner hardship. The gala is the heartbeat of this mission — a night to celebrate these remarkable animals and help ensure their continued care and second chances.

The Apalachicola Area Historical Society (AAHS) invites the public to an armchair Ghost Tour of the Chestnut Street Cemetery of Apalachicola, as part of their Spring Speaker Series. The Society has annually performed history-themed walks through the cemetery guided by local reenactors sharing the stories of some of the city’s founding mothers and fathers. However, this Spring’s tour will be held indoors on Saturday, February 21, beginning at 4:00 PM at the Carriage House of the Raney House Museum located at 126 Market St. in Apalachicola.

The program will be hosted by past Society president and former City Librarian Caty Greene and will draw from video tours recorded by the late Dolores Roux. Dolores was a native daughter of Apalachicola and was instrumental in starting the annual cemetery tour where locals offer an historical reenactment of the tales of the men and women buried in the city’s oldest cemetery.

Drawing from her personal memories of 20th Century Apalachicola and the stories of many of the city’s earlier townsfolk, hearing again Dolores’ recollections of those interred in the Chestnut St Cemetery will provide an enlightening and often humorous peek into Apalachicola’s history and some of the characters that shaped it.

This will be a unique opportunity to take a tour from a comfortable chair and with a guide who knew Apalachicola intimately. No tickets will be required for this event, though attendees are encouraged to arrive early as seating is limited. Admission is free, though donations are welcomed and will support the Historical Society’s programs.

These Speakers events are part of a well-established and popular series by the Apalachicola Area Historical Society with monthly speakers January through May and funded in part by the Franklin County Tourist Development Council. Previous programs have covered Apalachicola’s predominantly African American North Side, Territorial City St Joseph, Early Maps of the area, Niles Register Florida History, the ice delivery industry, Cemetery Preservation, Apalachicola Historic Squares and more. For details, email to AAHS.Raney@gmail.com, leave a message at (850) 653-1700, or go to www.apalachicolahistoricalsociety.org.
