Notes

General Note:
The video opens with Gene Tinnie talking about the need for preserving Virginia Key beach for the next generation. Next, Gene Tinnie introduces Miami Commissioner Marc Sarnoff, who addresses the crowd. Sarnoff notes that he wants to issue a challenge grant, where if the Virginia Key Trust can raise $150,000 to purchase the carousel, then $100,000 in funds from the Homeland Security Bond will be released to Virginia Key. Sarnoff also notes that it is equally important to get smaller monetary contributions as well. A short question and answer session follows Sarnoff's request for everyone in Miami to send money to Virginia Key so that they can purchase the carousel. Next Gene Tinnie addresses the crowd's questions and notes that they have already raised "12,000, but the video cuts off the total amount. The question and answer sessions continues with minor film breaks and interruptions. This also includes a short video taken on the Virginia Key Beach miniature train.
