Authors Don and Carol Thompson invite you to explore Egmont Key through a fascinating presentation based on their book Egmont Key, A History.
They will cover island history from early development from pre-Columbian times to its present day use as a nature preserve and base for Tampa Bay pilots. Learn about the little island's role through five wars. Hear anecdotes and view photos from the files of the keepers who manned the lighthouse that has served as a timeless and iconic beacon for ships entering Tampa Bay.
