​FLORIDA KEYS, FL – The Monroe County Board of County Commissioners thanked Baptist Health South Florida for its $20,000 sponsorship of Monroe County's Parks and Beaches Summer Camp Program at Wednesday’s meeting.

Special recognition was also given to Baptist’s Community Benefit Committee Chairman Jay Hershoff for his diligence in facilitating this donation and his commitment to the health and well-being of Monroe County children.
