These photos gently capture the community ceremonies and moments of remembrance from the 2026 Memorial Day held last week, honoring the members of our community who made the ultimate sacrifice. The community came together in a touching tribute, reflecting on their legacy with deep gratitude for their service. We invite NWFLC to join us in remembering and honoring those who have given so much. We hope these images inspire gratitude and unity and thank you for being part of this remembrance.

Artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping how cities deliver services, engage residents, and manage operations. Designed specifically for Florida cities, the Florida League of Cities’ AI Hub provides municipal leaders with practical guidance, real-world examples, and resources that help them understand AI, evaluate its risks and opportunities, and adopt tools responsibly, all while aligning with Florida’s unique legal and operational considerations. New materials will continue rolling out as this technology evolves.

Registration is open for the Florida League of Cities’ next IEMO I class to be held June 5-6 in Boca Raton.

Created in 1992, the Institute for Elected Municipal Officials (IEMO) program is a comprehensive educational initiative designed to equip municipal elected officials with the knowledge, skills, and tools necessary to govern their municipalities effectively. The curriculum covers various aspects of municipal governance through interactive and educational workshops led by experienced instructors, as well as offering peer-to-peer learning and networking. The program includes three levels: IEMO I, IEMO II, and FLC Leadership. IEMO I is specially designed for newly elected officials and those with less than one term in office.

This year, our nation will mark the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. For Florida’s cities, America250 is an opportunity to celebrate local history, civic pride, and the people and places that make each community unique.

The Florida League of Cities will be sharing ideas, tools, and resources to help cities plan meaningful, locally driven America250 celebrations.

To make it easier for cities to participate, the Florida League of Cities is curating national and state resources in one place. These materials are designed to be flexible and adaptable for communities of all sizes.

If your city is planning a celebration, initiative, or event tied to America250, please share it with the FLC. We look forward to showcasing the work happening in cities across the state and ensure Florida’s communities are well represented in this historic moment.

Learn more, explore resources, and submit your events by visiting the America250 webpage on the FLC site at https://www.flcities.com/america250/.
