2023-2024 Leadership

Beth Garcia
President

My favorite Chiselers preservation project to date is the restoration of the minarets.

We have received several grants to repair and maintain these beautiful representations of Moorish architecture. These one-of-a-kind structures highlight the skyline of Tampa and represent one of the most unique structures in the country.

Mary Scourtes Greacen
VP Communications

As a Chiseler, I’m dedicated to the preservation, and celebration of the history and heritage of UT’s historic 1891 Tampa Bay Hotel and am proud to be among the fabulous women who have helped maintain this iconic landmark. Climbing to the top of one of the fabled minarets was one of this Tampa native’s bucket list.

My favorite room in Plant Hall is The Chiseler Board Room. More members need to have the opportunity to see this. It has our history and the artifacts in the room embodies who we are and what we have accomplished.

Irene Baker
VP Membership

Being a Chiseler is important to me because I believe we should all leave a legacy.

Being part of the preservation and restoration effort for the magnificent Plant Hall is an honor and privilege, augmented with the incredible opportunity to work with so many wonderful women that I might not have meet and befriended otherwise!

Jane Hernandez
President Elect

Being a Chiseler is important to me because as a Tampa native and a graduate of the University of Tampa, Plant Hall is a very special place for me. It is important to me to be a part of preserving our city’s historic landmark for future generations to enjoy and appreciate.

Elizabeth Christenberry
VP Development

Being a Chiseler is important to me because of the historical preservation of Plant Hall which this group supports.

The amazing group of women who for 63 years have raised money through fundraising events, grants and dedication have helped preserve an iconic building which is a treasure to Tampa.

Laura Lee Glass
VP Governance

Being a Chiseler is important to me because historic preservation not only maintains our treasures from the past, but it allows for future generations to connect to our town's history and culture.

Kathe Lowrey
Secretary

My favorite room in Plant Hall is the lobby with its grand staircase, fireplaces, and gracious verandas on either side. After 132 years, the lobby still serves… the clientele may have changed from hotel guests to students, but the first impression still delights those entering for the first time, tempting them to further explore this grand building.
