A group of Ormond Beach residents are hoping to save Chief Tomokie.
The Chief Tomokie Preservation Group is aiming to have the statue placed on the Florida Trust for Historic Preservation's "11 to Save" program for 2024 — and the group is soliciting letters of support from the community. Every year, the organization picks 11 threatened historic places in the state and highlights them with the mission to inspire communities to preserve them. While no funding accompanies the designation, being on the list helps with applying for grants that could fund preservation efforts.
Last year, Ormond Yacht Club was added to the Florida Trust's 2023 "11 to save list." The deadline to submit an application to the Florida Trust is May 15.
