Since 2015, local philanthropist and beloved member of the Sarasota community, Ernest “Doc” Werlin, has helped rebuild and maintain the park near Hart’s Landing. He generously dedicated it in honor of his late wife Dr. Eloise Werlin. Doc’s ongoing contributions to the area have allowed the park to be one of the most special places in the city.
