The
Oviedo Preservation Project (TOPP) is a non-profit,
tax-exempt organization dedicated to "Engaging neighbors in history to build a stronger community." We seek to learn
more about the history and culture that surrounds
us here in Oviedo and to integrate that history into
our community fabric as our town grows.
Your
Donation Matters! As a group run entirely by unpaid
volunteers, we rely on donations from people just
like you to continue serving the community. Each year,
we host a photo contest to select pictures for a calendar,
which we then hand out for FREE. We also organize
a FREE cemetery tour each October to literally bring
history to life with volunteer actors. In February, we serve FREE breakfast and take people on a guided tour of downtown Oviedo. In April, we
host the Annual Citrus & Celery Cook-off at Taste
of Oviedo.
A
Special THANK YOU to our 2011 Presenting Sponsor,
our Major Sponsors,
and all of the other Sponsors, Contributors, and Supporters who made this year's calendar possible
We also appreciate all of the members who make our programming possible throughout the year. THANK YOU!

TOPP
does not seek to further any particular course of action
by the government or private citizens. Rather, TOPP seeks
to offer a sounding board for ideas about preservation and
to encourage city officials to make decisions only after
considering the consequences of their actions on historically
or culturally significant resources.
Our
mission is to assist in helping Oviedoans
make well-informed decisions about preserving places, structures,
and ideas that are distinctly Oviedo. To facilitate this,
TOPP seeks to assist with data collection, consensus-building,
and any other effort that may assist council in preserving
parts of Oviedo that hold special meaning for not only our
own citizens, but citizens of Seminole County, Central Florida,
the State of Florida, and the entire country.
This
website's goal is to give citizens in Oviedo and the surrounding
communities a place to look for interesting tidbits about
Oviedo, its history, and its traditions.
