In the days before racial integration, Gulfside was the primary place where black Methodist folk went for training events and conferences.  Just 2 weeks before Katrina hit, Gulfside had dedicated a new hotel overlooking the waters of the gulf. Katrina leveled the entire Gulfside facility with a 30 foot storm surge. read more
