Gulf Harbors Civic Association

4610 Floramar Terrace, New Port Richey, FL, 34652

The Gulf Harbors Civic Association has served the Gulf Harbors neighborhood of New Port Richey since 1973. It is a voluntary organization rather than a mandatory homeowners association, and it counts roughly 850 to 1,000 members, who join by choice. Its center of gravity is the civic center on Floramar Terrace, which serves as the neighborhood's meeting place and one of the area's more practical event spaces. The building is the reason many non-members know the association. Reviewers describe a large kitchen, an elevated stage and plenty of parking, a combination that suits weddings, fundraisers, community meetings and family celebrations. The kitchen sets it apart from a plain meeting hall, and the stage gives live music, presentations and ceremonies a proper focal point. As a civic association, the group's role is to bring neighbors together and give them a voice on issues that affect Gulf Harbors. Members gather at the center for meetings and social activities. For anyone planning an event in the area, the center is worth a call to ask about availability, capacity and rental terms. The association can be reached at (727) 848-0596; because its old website is no longer active, a phone call is the most reliable way to ask about membership, upcoming gatherings or booking the civic center.
