LIFE ON FORT MYERS BEACH
American Sand Sculpting Championships Near
Get ready, Fort Myers Beach! The American Sand Sculpting Championships returns to our island next Friday, November 20th,
with 16 Solo Master Sculptors and 10 Doubles Master Sculptors
representing four countries and ten states coming to create ephemeral
masterpieces out of our pristine white sand. The ten-day event has been
ushering in the holiday season for 29 years now, and has evolved into
one of the premier showcases for our little community – with the Sand
Vendor Village, daily Quick Sand competitions, live music, sand
sculpting demonstrations, ‘Sand Fans’ – your caricature carved in sand,
Deceptionist Extraordinaire Albert Lucio, the Florida State
Championships and much, much more.

Mound House Grand Opening November 14th
The much-anticipated Grand Opening of the Mound House will take place
this Saturday, November 14, 2015. Fort Myers Beach residents, visitors
and anyone with even a casual interest in area history or architecture
are all invited to attend this all-day celebration at Estero Island’s
oldest standing structure perched atop an ancient Indian Shell Mound.
There are nine special presentations planned from 9am-4pm in addition to
self-guided tours through the museum, special exhibits, interactive
displays and gift shop. There’s much more than the museum to see too. Stroll the pet-friendly
grounds, visit the observation pier, watch kayaks launch to enjoy the
Calusa Blueway Kayak Trail, visit the underground Shell Mound exhibit
and notice the landscaping-worth a visit all by itself - it’s a
collection of plants used by area residents over the centuries of
habitation on this spot.
