Letters to the Editor

The Marco Island Fire Rescue Foundation would like to thank our sponsors, volunteers and the Island community for their contributions in making our April Pancake Breakfast a huge success. Thank you to Coastal Breeze News, Cocomos, Pyramid AmSan, Marco Eagle and Mutual of Omaha Bank for their support. And a very heartfelt thank you to all of our Fire Fighters and EMT’s who assisted that day. Their commitment to our community is why the Foundation was created. Hope to see you all in November.

Dianna Dohm, President

 

I see the Kmart at the junction of Rts. 41 and 951 is still empty, Wouldn’t it be nice if someone put a bowling alley in that spot? It would be a wonderful place for families to go for some fun.

We used to have a bowling alley near us in NJ that had children’s, women’s, mixed and adult leagues. They ran birthday parties for children and family fun nights for couples; there was a concession stand for food and drinks and a bar for adult beverages. There were no video games so it did not become a hangout for teenagers.

It is a shame that space remains empty. A bowling alley in that location would be great for the families in Marco and Naples.
