“Fly Balls and Flights of Fancy: A Century of Spring"
Sunday, May 11 at 2 p.m.
Training in Pinellas County and Commercial Aviation throughout the World”
Presenter: Mr. Jim Schnur
Two important events along the Pinellas peninsula reshaped local sports history and travel throughout the world. On January 1, 1914, the St. Petersburg-Tampa Airboat Line began service as what many historians have regarded as the first regularly scheduled airline service using winged aircraft. Flights operated into the month of May 1914. During the spring of 1914, the St. Louis Browns (the Major League Baseball franchise now operating as the Baltimore Orioles) brought the first regular series of spring training games to St. Petersburg and Pinellas County while playing at a field near Snell Isle in the Old Northeast. Schnur discusses these historic milestones and places them within the broader context of Florida history. Presented by the Pinellas County Historical Society.
