Florida Surplus Lines Association

This year, we’re proud to support Daystar Life, a Pinellas County nonprofit helping individuals and families achieve stability and self-sufficiency.

We hope you will help us make an impact by:
• Donating during registration
• Volunteering onsite to assemble hygiene kits

We’re asking each attendee to consider donating $15, which covers the cost of one complete hygiene kit. If you’re unable to attend Convention, you can still participate by donating HERE: https://myfsla.com/convention-giveback/

We're putting together a fun member photo collage for the next FSLA e-newsletter and would love to feature your summer adventures! Whether you're traveling, spending time on the water, enjoying family time, or simply soaking up the sunshine, send us a summer photo for a chance to be included.

FSLA couldn't resist joining the fun! 🎶Tag an insurance industry friend who'll have this stuck in their head all day!

Our version of the lyrics, in surplus lines style:
“First quote in Miami, mi amigo
Florida surplus lines, here we go
Hard-to-place but we can place it
Every risk, we’re gonna chase it
Didn’t fit in the standard stuff
So we stepped in E&S tough
It’s a wild market to navigate
Coastal risk and storm-rate debate
On my first deal in the Sunshine State
Wind and flood, we underwrite
Layers deep, we bind it tight
Brokers move with speed and insight
All of this in Florida E&S life!!!”

Great job, Al Geraci and Shelly Joines!
