I was a sapling when Columbus sailed into the
Caribbean and was fully grown by Napoleon's
reign. I am now over five centuries old. I have
sheltered Indians, pirates and college students.
I am called Friendship Oak. Those who enter my
shadow are supposed to remain friends through all
their lifetime no matter where fate may-take them
in after years. There is not an alumna of Gulf Park
College who does not possess, tucked away some
where among her keepsakes and treasures, a twig,
a leaf or an acorn that came out of my heart. The
stairs and platform allow me to invite visitors into
my branches without disturbing my leafage.
Welcome friends
