The Scout Guide Sarasota, Volume 7

SARASOTA ANNA MARIA ISLAND TO BOCA GRANDE FLORIDA

CITY GUIDE

Editor˙s Letter

This guide is a celebration of the faces behind some of the most exceptional local businesses, brands, makers, and designers who have followed their passions and share a commitment to our community. The pages that follow serve as an introduction to these unique individuals who ref lect a true community spirit and who embody the essence of living and loving local.

We hope this book will inspire excitement and discovery as you explore the Florida Suncoast. Browse it, display it, build relationships, advocate, and share it with your friends and family, but most importantly, use it! Every dollar spent at a locally owned business creates waves of prosperity through our community. Whether you are a visitor, newcomer, or longtime local, we hope that this guide helps you engage with these businesses on a deeper level, and in doing so, helps you get a little closer to the best place to live, work, and play.

Sarasota, Anna Maria, and Boca Grande are some of the most beautiful places on earth, and we are so thankful to call this area home. We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to all our photographers who have captured the essence of these businesses and to the owners for being a part of this guide. Over the past year, we have truly seen the best of you. You have referred one another and supported each other through some of the most difficult times our nation has seen. From our restaurants and retail, to our first responders and philanthropists, it is an honor to continue sharing your inspiring stories.

We can’t wait to share more online at sarasota.thescoutguide.com and throughout the year on Instagram @TSGsarasota.

Thank you for browsing this guide, and when you connect with these incredible businesses, please tell them The Scout Guide sent you!

All of our best and big love,

Nikki Logan Curran & David Warren Curran This book is dedicated to the memory of Greg Jung and Sam Mossler for their enormous impact and inf luence on our community.
