While his Father was in the navy, George's family lived at Pearl Harbor, and he witnessed the 1941 attack. George himself served in the navy for more than three years as a weather forecaster; for part of the time he was on the USS Bairoko. After graduating from the University of California, Los Angeles with a degree in meteorology in 1955, George Millay worked for a stockbroking firm until 1960. He married Anne Real in 1963; they eventually had three sons and a daughter.","\nIn 1958, Millay opened the Reef restaurant in Los Angeles with David Tallichet. He planned to create a submarine bar there so that customers could view sea creatures while enjoying cocktails. The plan failed because the water in the harbor was too cloudy. However, his interest in marine life introduced him to Dr. Kenneth Norris, curator at Marineland. Together with Milton Shedd and David DeMott, they organized the Marine Park Corporation to create a marine park in San Diego. Sea World opened in 1964 and expanded in 1970 with a park in Ohio followed by the Orlando park in 1972. Sea World Inc. opened an amusement park in Valencia California on 29th May 1971 in partnership with Newhall Land and Farming. Officially named \"Magic Mountain\", the park was designated \"Tragic Mountain\" by a reporter who was injured there. Sea World did not make a profit on the venture and sold out to its partner late in 1971. Millay resigned from Sea World Inc in 1974 because of a disagreement with his partners over how the company should develop.","\nGeorge Millay had spent a lot of time at Sea World in Orlando, and he thought that families would enjoy water activities as a break from the Florida heat. He pulled together ideas from a water playground at the Toronto World's Fair, a flume near Sacramento and a wave pool in Alabama, added a children's playgound, restrooms, gift shop and snack bar to create a new concept. He formed the Leisure Marine Corporation to develop his idea. Initially, the company ran the Seven Seas park in Arlington, TX, for a season, but the venture did not develop further. Wet 'n Wild eventually became a reality in Orlando, where it opened in 1977. The company took over the failing Seven Seas park and redeveloped it into the second Wet 'n Wild in 1983 followed by Las Vegas in 1985. Additional sites opened in Garland, TX, Brazil and Mexico. Wet 'n Wild was named the Best of Aquatics for 2003 by Aquatics International magazine.","\nMillay retired from Wet 'n Wild in 1998, but he continued to work on new projects. He designed and patented a system for moving visitors down into the center of a circular aquarium so that everyone had a good view of the fish. Millay partnered with William Watts and David Powell in creating a company named Sea Venture to sell the system. At the time of his death in 2006, no examples of the system had been sold.","\nGeorge Millay received Lifetime Achievement Awards from the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions and the Themed Entertainment Association, and he was named the Father of the Waterpark Industry by the World Waterpark Association.

Hazel Barbour was born in Portland on August 27, 1923, the daughter of George P. Jackson and Mabel Anderson Jackson. George and Hazel were married in Portland on August 28, 1943. George graduated from North Yarmouth Academy and Hazel from Deering High School.","During the war, Hazel worked as a secretary in the South Portland Shipyard, and later at the Pueblo (CO) Air Base. George served with the \"Flying Tigers\" in China and was a life member of the Fourteenth Air Force Association and the China, Burma, India Veterans Association. He received two Distinguished Flying Crosses and two Air Medals for flying seventy-seven combat missions as a flight engineer and top turret gunner. During the Korean War, he served in the U. S. Air Force training flight engineers.","After the war, Hazel was a member of the Twice Fifteen Club, helped the Lions Club with their shows, and volunteered for the group that became the United Way. George was a captain in the Yarmouth Volunteer Fire Department, King Lion in the Yarmouth Lions Club, a member of Anderson-Mayberry post of the American Legion, and trustee for Riverside Cemetery. He was elected to the first Town Council Yarmouth ever had. Much of George's service to Yarmouth was combined with his employment. For 27 years he owned and operated the general store M. L. Barbour \u0026 Son, the predecessor of Goff's Hardware. He was a Cumberland County deputy sheriff for ten years, and for 50 years he worked part-time for Lindquist Funeral Home, from driving an ambulance to assisting at funerals. George was also a member of several Masonic organizations, some for 70 years. These included Casco Lodge in Yarmouth, Arundel Lodge in Kennebunkport, the Shriners of Kora Temple, and the Scottish Rite. Hazel worked as a legal secretary before the children came, and when they got older, she went back to work at Guy Gannet Publishing Co. (Portland newspapers) as a confidential secretary to the top executives. Hazel died on Dec. 4, 2016, and George on June 20, 2017.","Transferred from the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience to FSU Libraries Special Collections \u0026 Archives in July 2022.","The collection of George and Hazel Barbour relates to George Barbour who served in the 14th Air Force \"Flying Tigers\" in the China-Burma-India (CBI) Theater, and his wife Hazel Barbour who remained on the home front during World War II.

After graduating from Thomasville High, Langford was drafted into the Army, at age 20, alongside his brother, William, who was killed in action. George Langford served under General George S. Patton from 1942 to 1945. George Langford's other siblings, Annie, Will, and Daniel, were in the Navy. After spending most of the war on the European Front, George Langford was honorably dischaged and returned home. He then attended the University of Virgina, where he received his bachelors and his law degree in 1950. Upon graduation, George Langford founded the Municipal Code Corporation in Tallahassee in 1951. After marrying his wife, Marian Corbin Lawton, in 1954, the two worked together to expand the company. Langford was named the Florida Entrepreneur of the Year in 1989 and inducted into the Institute of American Entrepreneurs for his work. Langford was incredibly active in the Tallahassee community, co-founding Springtime Tallahassee, helping start Leadership Tallahassee, and revitalized the Tall Timber research institute in Tallahassee. Among his community involved was his work in fundraising for  various local beneficiaries. He brought his expertise in fundraising to Florida State, serving as a founding member of the Seminole Boosters Board of Directors during the 1970s and in six terms as the FSU Foundation chair. Among his greater contributions to the school was his work in the 1970s as executive of Seminole Boosters, helping save the football program from debt and playing an influential role in hiring coach Bobby Bowden. In recognition of his work, Langford received many awards from the university, as well as the naming of the Langford Green in 2000, a grassy area outside of Doak Campbell Stadium, in his honor. Additionally, he created the George R. Langford Eminent Scholars Chair in Classics through his donation to the department. As of 2017, he remained an active member of the Florida State University Community, despite his age. His children are also very involved in Florida State and the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience. George Langford passed at age 95 on January 3, 2019.

After graduating from Thomasville High, Langford was drafted into the Army, at age 20, alongside his brother, William, who was killed in action. George Langford served under General George S. Patton from 1942 to 1945. George Langford's other siblings, Annie, Will, and Daniel, were in the Navy. After spending most of the war on the European Front, George Langford was honorably dischaged and returned home. He then attended the University of Virgina, where he received his bachelors and his law degree in 1950. Upon graduation, George Langford founded the Municipal Code Corporation in Tallahassee in 1951. After marrying his wife, Marian Corbin Lawton, in 1954, the two worked together to expand the company. Langford was named the Florida Entrepreneur of the Year in 1989 and inducted into the Institute of American Entrepreneurs for his work. Langford was incredibly active in the Tallahassee community, co-founding Springtime Tallahassee, helping start Leadership Tallahassee, and revitalized the Tall Timber research institute in Tallahassee. Among his community involved was his work in fundraising for  various local beneficiaries. He brought his expertise in fundraising to Florida State, serving as a founding member of the Seminole Boosters Board of Directors during the 1970s and in six terms as the FSU Foundation chair. Among his greater contributions to the school was his work in the 1970s as executive of Seminole Boosters, helping save the football program from debt and playing an influential role in hiring coach Bobby Bowden. In recognition of his work, Langford received many awards from the university, as well as the naming of the Langford Green in 2000, a grassy area outside of Doak Campbell Stadium, in his honor. Additionally, he created the George R. Langford Eminent Scholars Chair in Classics through his donation to the department.

Notaro came to USF St. Petersburg as an openly gay librarian and has championed gay rights for decades.  As a board member of the ACLU of Pinellas County he worked to make sure that gay and lesbian issues were addressed.  He was the original advisor for the LGBTQ+ student organization at USF St. Petersburg.  Mr. Notaro helped found Camp Torreyea, a summer camp for LGBTQ+ youth and created a support group within the Florida Library Association that works to understand the needs of the LGBTQ+ community in libraries. Mr. Notaro has participated in many gay pride events, including attending New York gay parade in 1979 that commemorated the tenth anniversary of the Stonewall Riots.  He also took part in the first gay pride parade in Pinellas County in 1989 at William Park that had only about 50 people in attendance. He was a member of St. Petersburg Pride from its beginning in 2003 and served on the organization's board of directors for two years and as the secretary and archivist for two years.","St. Pete Pride is an annual gay pride event that occurs every June that culminates with a parade and street festival in St. Petersburg's Kenwood neighborhood and Grand Central District.  St. Pete Pride began in 2003 as another gay pride organization, Greater Tampa Bay Pride, began to falter.  St. Pete Pride wanted to focus on promoting the gay and lesbian community in St. Petersburg and Pinellas County that had been underserved by the Greater Tampa Bay Pride organization.  The event also gained more support and prominence when the Hillsborough County Commission passed a controversial resolution prohibiting that county on the eastern side of Tampa Bay from recognizing or acknowledging gay pride in any way, including displays in public libraries. ","The size of the event has grown significantly from its beginnings in 2003. The inaugural parade had an estimated 10,000 attendees while the crowd estimates for the parades since 2009 have been over 80,000.  St. Pete Pride is the largest city sponsored event of the year, larger than Martin Luther King Jr., Day and the annual Opening Day celebration of the Tampa Bay Rays baseball team at Tropicana Field.  It is the largest gay pride event in the state of Florida and the largest event in the South outside Atlanta. The size of the parade itself has also grown over the years.  At its beginning it took less than fifteen minutes for the parade to reach its end, while in 2011 it took over four hours.","Although the size and scope of St. Pete Pride has changed since its beginning in 2003, this event has retained much of its original character.  It remains free to all attendees in order encourage those for\nwhom fees might be a roadblock to participate and it takes place in a neighborhood that has been supportive of the LGBT community for years.","Perceptions of St. Pete Pride by the local community and government have also evolved since 2003. Sponsorship has shifted increasingly from local businesses to a large number of national sponsors, which have included Macys, Wells‐Fargo, Coca Cola, and Jet Blue.  While the event has always received warm support from the St. Petersburg City Council and the city government, it has only recently received any acknowledgement from the Mayor's office.  While former Mayor Rick Baker's attitude towards St. Pete Pride could be described as \"silently non‐supportive,\" Mayor Bill Foster has given greater attention to St. Pete Pride and the gay community. Although, like his predecessor, Foster refused to sign the city council proclamation recognizing St. Pete Pride, he did attend the reading of the proclamation and some of the ancillary events related to parade.","As evidence of St. Pete Pride's growth in importance and size, it has become an important driver of tourism among the gay and lesbian community at the international level.  The parade has made St. Petersburg into a tourist destination for the LGBT community.  Hotels catering to the LGBT community become fully booked during the three days surrounding the parade","Materials include St. Petersburg Pride event ephemera, photographic prints and negatives, commemorative items, promotional pamphelets and posters from the early 2000s.

The event also gained more support and prominence when the Hillsborough County Commission passed a controversial resolution prohibiting that county on the eastern side of Tampa Bay from recognizing or acknowledging gay pride in any way, including displays in public libraries. ","The size of the event has grown significantly from its beginnings in 2003. The inaugural parade had an estimated 10,000 attendees while the crowd estimates for the parades since 2009 have been over 80,000.  St. Pete Pride is the largest city sponsored event of the year, larger than Martin Luther King Jr., Day and the annual Opening Day celebration of the Tampa Bay Rays baseball team at Tropicana Field.  It is the largest gay pride event in the state of Florida and the largest event in the South outside Atlanta. The size of the parade itself has also grown over the years.  At its beginning it took less than fifteen minutes for the parade to reach its end, while in 2011 it took over four hours.","Although the size and scope of St. Pete Pride has changed since its beginning in 2003, this event has retained much of its original character.  It remains free to all attendees in order encourage those for\nwhom fees might be a roadblock to participate and it takes place in a neighborhood that has been supportive of the LGBT community for years.","Perceptions of St. Pete Pride by the local community and government have also evolved since 2003. Sponsorship has shifted increasingly from local businesses to a large number of national sponsors, which have included Macys, Wells‐Fargo, Coca Cola, and Jet Blue.  While the event has always received warm support from the St. Petersburg City Council and the city government, it has only recently received any acknowledgement from the Mayor's office.  While former Mayor Rick Baker's attitude towards St. Pete Pride could be described as \"silently non‐supportive,\" Mayor Bill Foster has given greater attention to St. Pete Pride and the gay community. Although, like his predecessor, Foster refused to sign the city council proclamation recognizing St. Pete Pride, he did attend the reading of the proclamation and some of the ancillary events related to parade.","As evidence of St. Pete Pride's growth in importance and size, it has become an important driver of tourism among the gay and lesbian community at the international level.

United States, 1962-2012 ","Robert Hugh Brown grew up in Miami, Florida. He developed a fascination for roadside attractions while touring the state of Florida extensively. In the 1990s, Brown created \"Florida's Lost Tourist Attractions,\" or Lostparks.com, a website dedicated to documenting the many attractions that sprang up and later fell by the wayside following the opening of Walt Disney World. Of his work on the website, Brown writes, \"Tourist attractions have a way of springing up on the Florida roadside... only to wither and die when they just can't quite sustain the magic. You will find no historical marker to mark their passing, no footnote in the history book, only the occasional exotic plant, or shopping center, or oddly named road.\" His research for the website led him to collect thousands of brochures, postcards, flyers, and other ephemera detailing Florida tourism.  ","In 1997, Brown created a travel website for The Mining Company (later known as About.com or Dotdash), a digital media company, writing about theme parks around the world and the amusement park industry. As a result, he also collected materials from attractions located across the United States, the United Kingdom, and Germany. Brown worked as an actor in film, television, and theater productions. He was a cast member of Second Thought Improv and On the Edge Improvisational Theatre. As of 2024, Brown is retired and currently resides in Ocoee, Florida. ","Processed by and finding aid prepared by Sofia Arias in 2024. Additional processing by Simone DeLuque in 2025.","Other materials related to theme parks and the tourism industry can be found in the  Disney Ephemera collection , the  George and Anne Millay collection , and the  Al Turner, Splash Magazine collection .","The Robert H. Brown Tourism Collection, 1900-2013 (bulk 1970-2010), documents tourism in and around Florida during the twentieth century. It chiefly consists of postcards, brochures, and guidebooks relating to the tourism and theme park industries, as well as press kits and other promotional materials. This collection provides insight into the marketing and promotion of tourist attractions in and around Florida. Many of the attractions documented are no longer in existence or are in decline after the opening of the Walt Disney World Resort in 1971, offering a glimpse at the tourist landscape of Florida prior to and immediately after the resort's domination of Central Florida tourism. ","Series I: Florida, 1900-2013, contains postcards, brochures, flyers, presskits, visitor's guides, maps, and other tourist papers related to theme parks and attractions in the state of Florida. Subseries 1 chiefly contains postcards organized alphabetically by city location, then by subject.
