Historical Village Thanks SAN-CAP Rotary

The Sanibel-Captiva Rotary Club recently donated $4,000 to the Sanibel Historical Village. The money is to mitigate the cost of new pavers on the walkways throughout the village, replacing the old boardwalk-style paths.

“The new pavers are safer and a much-needed improvement,” said village president Karl Rodman. “We’re very grateful to Rotary. Its members have been very good to us. I’d like to thank in particular John Grey, chair of the Sanibel-Captiva Rotary Trust, and Bill Rahe, the club’s immediate past president.”

The Sanibel Historical Museum and Village is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. It is located at 950 Dunlop Road (next to BIG ARTS). Admission is $10 for adults over 18; those under 18 and members are free. Docent-guided tours are available at 10:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. at no extra charge, based upon docent availability. There is handicap access to all buildings. For information, call 472-4648 during business hours or visit www.sanibelmuseum.org.
