Vice President
Clay Crockett
Clay is an 8th generation Floridian who was entrenched in early Florida history by stories, pictures, and artifacts told and handed down from his Great Grandparents. FL west coast to east coast cattle drives (and vice versa), Citrus grove cultivation, and Fruit Packing Facilities Management were staples in Clay's family background. As those industries faded and became a port of Florida History, his family transitioned into Banking, Real Estate Development, and Small Business Ventures. Clay moved to the Florida Keys in 2006 and brought his 25 years of Foodservice and Hospitality Business Leadership and education to a community that required it. Today, he owns Coral Keys Party Rentals and the Florida Keys Hot Sauce Company, both based in Islamorada. He is active with various community organizations in assisting in the preservation of the Past, Present, and Future interests of the Florida Keys.
