AEI's final Women's History Month spotlight features former Martin County Commissioner, Maggy Hurchalla, who dedicated 20 years in office to protecting the beauty and ecological value of natural areas in the County. With intelligent, irreverent candor, she negotiated with developers and political powers to make Martin County one of Florida’s leaders in environmental preservation and a beautiful place to live. Maggy is the reason developers can’t fill in wetlands in Martin County, and why interstate I-95 bends away from Stuart to avoid conservation land. With a deep love for Florida’s wilderness, Maggy said that she was “born an environmental advocate,” a role she held until her final days. Sadly, in the final chapter of her lifelong dedication to Florida’s beauty, she was Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation (SLAPP) sued for speaking out against a destructive environmental project. SLAPPs are lawsuits perpetuated by polluting industries to remove fundamental First Amendment rights to free speech and to petition the government for a redress of grievances as sanctified by the U.S. Constitution. Banned by law in many states, SLAPP suits are only moderately restrained by Florida law. “The point of this is simply to frighten anyone else from ever, ever saying anything about them again,” said Hurchalla, whose late sister was Janet Reno, the second-longest serving U.S. Attorney General in history. Maggy was an optimist, who even after being slapped with a $4 Million court-ordered judgement at the age of 77, said, “They can do whatever they want, but I’m not going away.”

AEI continues to recognize notable women environmentalists with a spotlight on MaVynee Betsch, better known as the “Beach Lady.” MaVynee was an environmental activist and donor who fought to preserve the historically African-American beach on Florida’s Atlantic Coast called American Beach. Growing up in Jacksonville, FL, MaVynee Betsch was part of a wealthy family. Her great-grandfather was Florida’s first Black millionaire whose company purchased 200 acres of beachfront property on Amelia Island to allow a place for African Americans to enjoy the beach during the Jim Crow era. Many jazz singers visiting American Beach inspired the young Betsch to pursue a career in music which she did successfully. She studied at Oberlin Conservatory of Music and performed as an Opera singer in Europe. When she returned to Florida in the 1960s to care for her family, MaVynee Betsch fell back in love with the natural beauty, especially birds and insects, and ultimately gave up her singing career to connect herself with the environmental movement and protect her great-grandfather’s legacy. She advocated for the preservation of American Beach by giving historical tours, politically lobbying, and planting trees. She sold her substantial inheritance to support environmental causes worldwide – funding butterfly studies, seal-saving expeditions, and rainforest restoration. Scientists even dedicated a butterfly textbook to her. Betsch’s advocacy for American Beach has had lasting impacts – her campaign against the development of NaNa Dune, part of the tallest dune system of Florida’s Atlantic Coast, led to the National Park Service protecting the dune and American Beach Historic District being added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2002.
