The 2026 Gulf Breeze Registry
A civic yearbook documenting the people shaping Gulf Breeze today.
Recording sessions begin April 1.
A National Standard. Locally Applied.
Your story is saved in the town yearbook.
Neighborhood events help us honor it and take care of it.
We only tell stories about the people who are building our town and making it better.
We are here to keep a record of our best positive moments as a community.
Applying the same documentation and media protocols used by the most influential names in America.
How the Registry Is Sustained
The Registry is a civic archive.
Residents and families are documented at no cost.
A limited number of local operators are appointed each year to steward the production and preservation of the record.
These appointments are selective and category-limited.
Stewards are documented within the same civic yearbook — not as advertisers, but as participants in the historical record.
Documentation comes first.

PRIOR REGISTRY WORK
The 2025 Registry — Silicon Valley
Before arriving in Gulf Breeze, the Registry was built and tested in a faster, more competitive market.
• Executed in Silicon Valley in 2025
• Documented founders, operators, and senior leaders
• Established the editorial and operational standard
That same standard is now being applied to the 2026 Gulf Breeze Yearbook.

THE ARCHIVIST OF THE RECORD
Mitch Felix | Producer, Future of Gulf Breeze
Mitch Felix records and organizes the conversations included in the Gulf Breeze Registry.
Before returning home to Florida, he spent several years in California documenting founders, operators, and civic builders in fast-growing companies. That work developed the documentation protocols now used in the Registry.
His role is simple:
• record the conversations
• organize the archive
• preserve the record for the community
The goal is to ensure the people shaping Gulf Breeze today are remembered clearly tomorrow.
