The Sanibel-Captiva Lions Club continues
its tradition of service as its
members prepare for the annual
sale of Christmas trees on the islands.
The premium Fraser Christmas firs have
been freshly cut and will be shipped in
refrigerated trucks from North Carolina
just in time for Thanksgiving weekend.
They will be located in the Bailey’s
Center, between the Grog Shop and
Island Cinema.
The tree lot will open on November
26. You can stop by to pick your special
tree any day from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
“We’d like to thank everyone in
advance for supporting this holiday tradition.
We hope to sell more trees this year
than ever!” said Tom Hoover, a past president of the Lions Club.
During this period the Lions will
also host another one of their popular
fish fries. The fish fry will take place on
Luminary evening Friday, December 2,
at The Community House. The event will
start at 4 p.m. and last until the fish runs
out. The menu will feature fresh fried fish,
cheese grits, baked beans, coleslaw, choice
of beverages and apple pie. As usual, even
carry-out will be available! There is an $8
suggested donation for adults; children
under five will be admitted for free. Money
raised at the fish fry will benefit the Lions’
Summer Camp Scholarships for individuals
with learning and other disabilities
who will be able to attend Quest’s Camp
Thunderbird program. For more information
