FOR THE HOME TEAM.
While Ryan Keur is the biggest fan of the Daytona
Tortugas, it is his management acumen that led to his
being honored as the national Minor League Baseball
Executive of the Year by Baseball America and Ballpark
Digest. No surprise. Before landing in Daytona Beach,
Ryan was with the Burlington Royals, where he was
named the Appalachian League Executive of the Year
three years running. His trophy case also includes
honors from the Kansas City Royals and the Florida State
League. Ryan was an honoree in the News-Journal’s “40
Under 40” leaders in 2017. He serves on the Boards of
Directors of One Voice for Volusia and Team Volusia.
LEADING WITH STYLE.
In addition to being Vice Mayor of DeBary, Erika Benfield
owns Florida Living Quarters, which has received
nominations and awards from local chambers of
commerce and the Orlando Business Journal as a “Top
10 Interior Design Firm”. Born in Puerto Rico, she moved
stateside at age six. Erika is a member of the Hispanic
Chamber of Commerce of Metro Orlando and West
Volusia. She is past president of the local Toastmasters
Club and Rotary Club of DeBary, Deltona and Orange
City and is a graduate of Leadership West Volusia. Team
Volusia is proud to have Erika as a Board Level investor.
