A Letter From The President

Dear Friends of the Junior League of the Space Coast,

This is a milestone year for the Junior League of the Space Coast as we celebrate 60 years of service, leadership, and community impact.

For six decades, women in our League have shown up for one another and for our community through volunteer service, leadership development, collaboration, and meaningful community partnerships. It is an incredible legacy, and I am honored to help carry it forward.

Our theme this year is Momentum: In Motion. On Mission.

To us, momentum means moving forward with purpose. It is not about perfection; it is about persistence. It is about continuing to show up, continuing to build, and finding ways to make a lasting impact here on the Space Coast.

As we celebrate our 60th Anniversary, we are focused on strengthening our membership, growing our community impact, and partnering with local nonprofits to better understand and respond to the needs of women and families in our community. Through AJLI’s All Women. All Things. initiative, we are continuing to look at the full picture of women’s lives and how JLSC can serve with intention, compassion, and purpose.

This year is also an exciting new chapter for our League as we continue to build community from our new home at The Guava Manor in the Eau Gallie Arts District. JLSC has a rich history in EGAD, and we are so grateful to have a home in a community rooted in creativity, connection, and local pride.

We are especially excited to invite the community to join us for the 42nd Annual Festival of Trees on Saturday, November 21 at the Eau Gallie Civic Center. This beloved holiday tradition will be held in a new venue this year, and we cannot wait to welcome families, friends, local businesses, and community partners to celebrate the season with us.

Festival of Trees is more than a holiday event. It is a celebration of generosity, creativity, community, and impact. Funds raised through Festival of Trees support the Junior League of the Space Coast’s mission to advance women’s leadership for meaningful community impact through volunteer action, collaboration, and training.

As we move through this milestone year, we hope you will join us in celebrating 60 years of JLSC, supporting our community work, and helping us carry this momentum forward.

Thank you to our members, sustainers, sponsors, donors, nonprofit partners, and community friends who continue to support the Junior League of the Space Coast. We are grateful for your partnership and excited for the year ahead.

With gratitude,

Katie Ourand, Esq.
President, League Year 2026-2027
