Mark your calendars, music lovers—December 7-8, 2024, is shaping up to be an unforgettable weekend in Walton County. The Inaugural DwightFest is coming to the Gulf Place Green Space and Amphitheater in Santa Rosa Beach, and this isn’t just any music festival. It’s a celebration of art, community, and the power of music to bring people together for a cause.
In a world that often feels fast-paced and disconnected, Giving Tuesday offers a moment to pause, reflect, and invest in the community we hold dear. It’s a global day of generosity that transcends borders, but its most powerful impact starts locally.
Nestled in the heart of Walton County lies a town that seems to leap straight out of a Hallmark Christmas movie. Each holiday season, DeFuniak Springs transforms into a winter wonderland that draws visitors from near and far to experience its magical charm.
When you meet Rob Hamilton, it’s easy to assume he’s a man who’s seen it all. His tattooed exterior, chiseled from years of hard work and determination, can seem intimidating at first glance. But spend even a minute talking with him, and you’ll find a kind-hearted, deeply spiritual man whose warmth and passion radiate through his words.
This is the first of a special two-part episode, where we connect you with architect and DeFuniak Springs city councilman Anthony Vallée.
