    GP Folely Cellulose Public Affairs Manager Scott Mixon presented a $14,000 check to Miss Florida Forest Festival Ella Holley, Little Queen Isabelle Brock and Little King Benjamin Weadon on Wednesday in support of the upcoming 66th annual Florida Forest Festival.

    “We missed the Florida Forest Festival last year due to the pandemic, and I am personally looking forward to the festival’s return this year. On behalf of Georgia-Pacific and the Foley Cellulose mill, I want to thank all of the festival board of directors and volunteers for their effort, engagement and preparation for the festival. Some of our volunteers have taken ownership of multiple events, and they have worked very hard to make them happen,” Mixon said.
