 oin Landmark historian Bill Potter and special “remote” guest Col. John Eidsmoe, as we explore the ancient sites of northeastern Florida. We will tell the stories on location of the Castillo de San Marcos at St. Augustine, the oldest masonry fort in the continental United States, and the French Huguenot colony at Jacksonville, Ft. Caroline. We will remember the courageous Reformed settlers who brought the Gospel to the natives of the region and their subsequent extermination by the Spanish for the capital crime of rejecting the Catholic Church and following the Calvinist Reformation.

| “They’ve done all the work for you! Just show up and enjoy each of the amazing venues, and soak in the Biblical interpretations and rich fellowship. You won’t regret it!” —Jessica K., 2015 Florida Tour |
We will examine the lives and times of fearless conquistadors, notorious pirates, superstitious explorers seeking the fountain of youth, the ferocious no-holds-barred Scots-Irish General Andrew Jackson who seized Florida and would not give it back, and the natives who suffered through all the invasions and fought a war with the United States that was never concluded!
Our tour culminates at one of the most interesting Civil War reenactments of 2017 at the scene of the largest battle fought in Florida, the Battle of Olustee.
Fun for the Entire Family!
