After transferring to Isaiah Blocker Junior High School in 1955, at age eleven, his history teacher Rutledge Henry Pearson encouraged him to join the local NAACP Youth Council. By the time he was fifteen, Mr. Hurst was named president of the youth council chapter.","In 1960, Hurst led the lunch counter sit in demonstrations in downtown Jacksonville's shopping districts. The first one began on August 13, 1960. They targeted the Woolworth's counter. In addition, demonstrations were held at Cohen Bros, WT Grant Department Store, Kness Department Store, and McCrory Department Store. \n    \nIn response, the stores closed their lunch counters and thus fueled the tensions that coalesced on August 27 also known as Ax Handle Saturday when 200 segregationists, armed with ax handles and baseball bats attacked 35 members of the NAACP youth council and other Black Americans who happened to be in the area.\n    \nEventually, the police closed off downtown and the sit ins ceased. Then on December 8, 1960, Rodney Hurst was arrested for his part in the demonstrations and charged with instigating a riot.  The charges were dropped after his hearing and was released. By May 16, 1961, all lunch counters in Jacksonville were integrated due to Mr. Hurst and the Youth Council's efforts.\n    \nIn subsequent years, Mr. Hurst sat on the Jacksonville Civil Council and represented District 8 from 1975-1979 and District 10 from 1979-1983. \n    \nLater in 2008, he authored a semi-autobiographical account of his experiences called \"It Was Never About a Hot Dog and a Coke!\" The book garnered recognition at the Sabrina Awards Best Non Fiction and Top Three Pick On July 31st that same year.","In addition, Mr. Hurst received awards for his participation in the 2009 Writer's Digest 16th Annual Self-Published Book awards, the ENAABLE and Blue Cross Blue Shield of Florida Black History Month Celebration.

She was a successful sales woman at a chic dress shop. Feinman had a previous marriage that soon ended in divorce, but she remarried around 1949 to Jerome Saul Feinman. They had two daughters Lynne and Mindy. Since Feinman became a first time mother late in life she didn't start truly living for herself until her children left home. Feinman did volunteer work for over a decade for the Cerebral Palsy Association. She started pursuing her acting career around the age of 65, she started off by looking for small acting gigs in the New York Theater.

Her husband encouraged her and told her she had nothing to lose. Feinman ended up winning the open-mic contest that night. Feinman also received great reviews that night, the judges loved her and told her that she was ready to take her act on the road. Feinman later started doing stand-up comedy on cruise ships, comedy clubs, and even at some theme parks. Rose and Jerome purchased annual passes to Disney as well as a few other theme parks. A few years after she had started doing stand-up comedy her husband developed Alzheimers, which led to her giving up a lot of her free time in order to help care for him. She could no longer travel long distances for fear of something happening to him. When she finally had a chance to leave the house for a few hours she would go to the comedy club. She enjoyed going on stage; hearing the laughter made everything feel better at the time. Feinman later passed away on December 7, 2012 at the age of 100.

Many of them gathered at Al Boyd's Boot Ranch, a large agricultural ranch once noted for its prize cattle and horses with a seventeen-foot high boot by its entrance. As developers carved new suburbs east of Lake Tarpon, many of the pasturelands disappeared. In 1970, locals worried that plans to develop an airport on a fifty-acre tract one mile east of East Lake Road and one-quarter mile south of Keystone Road would disrupt cattle and dairy production in the region. They came together and established the Rural Protective Association as a non-profit organization to oppose the airport and prevent suburban encroachment.","Alfred \"Al\" Boyd (1913-1998), a north Pinellas native and member of a pioneer family, led this effort. His grandparents, Eugene Boyd and wife Nancy Blanton Boyd, originally came to the area from Greenville, Florida, in the mid-1880s. They had traveled by wagon along trails through San Antonio towards Green Springs, now Safety Harbor. With the arrival of the Orange Belt Railway in 1888, the Boyd family witnessed the dramatic growth of Tarpon Springs and John Cheyney's development of lands east of Tarpon Springs as part of the Lake Butler Villa Company. In 1913, Al Boyd was born in the Safety Harbor area.","The Boyd family had established an impressive ranch and cultivated acreage in northeastern Pinellas. In 1951—two years after the Florida Legislature ended the open range with the \"Closed Fence Law\"—Al Boyd established Boot Ranch south of Lake Tarpon (formerly Lake Butler) near Tampa Road. That same year, the large boot was placed on the property. The ranch thrived in\nrural northeastern Pinellas at the same time that Clearwater became one of the fastest growing municipalities in the United States and development embraced the rest of the county. As subdivisions sprouted to the southwest, Boyd even offered some of his land as right-of-way for East Lake Road, a move that opened the area north of Oldsmar and east of Lake Tarpon to new settlers.","By the spring of 1970, rural residents who lived around Boot Ranch expressed concern about plans to construct an airport on lands in the East Lake area. Boyd and others held informal meetings in June 1970 and filed organizational paperwork with the Florida Department of State\non June 25 to establish the Rural Protective Association. The first formal meeting after incorporation took place at the Boot Ranch, on County Road 77, on 31 August 1970. Many members expressed anger when they heard that leaders in the Tarpon Springs Chamber of Commerce supported the airpark proposal. Residents mounted a petition drive and contacted members of the Board of County Commissioners. In addition to its preservation efforts, the Rural Protection Association also sponsored social activities such as \"new neighbor barbeques.\" ","Despite their lobbying efforts, members of the Rural Protective Association could not halt the wave of development that spilled along the eastern shores of Lake Tarpon. Al Boyd sold Boot Ranch \"on a handshake\" to a land development company in 1972 and the Boyd family's landholdings shrunk to under 500 acres by the late 1980s. Developers transformed tracts formerly owned by Boyd into the East Lake Woodlands, Lansbrook, and Boot Ranch subdivisions. Members of the Rural Protective Association dissolved the non-profit by proclamation on 2 July 1973.","For many years, a small north-south landing strip known as Tarpon Air Park sat at the end of Airpark Road (now Fletch Haven Drive), south of Keystone Road. In an ironic twist, as condominiums and large homes approached the site of the landing strip, Pinellas County authorities acquired the site in September 1996 for $279,900 (the tract was purchased by its previous owners for $20,000 in 1971). Thus, while little remained of the rural character once found along Tampa Road and much of the East Lake area, the runaway and much of the site of the former airpark have returned to their natural state.
