This past Saturday between 40 and 50 people took part in The Pub Without The Pub Crawl following the cancellation of the Woman’s Club Putt & Pub Crawl due to COVID-19. The goal was to save some of the money collected each year and distributed to several community organizations.
A total of $6,156.25 was collected from participant donations throughout the day and generous checks written by several local businesses. A PayPal account was set up about a week ago where $1,750 was donated. Another $2,614.25 was collected by passing the hat at each restaurant we stopped by. And, businesses donated the remaining $1,787.00, including: Nervous Nellie’s ($500), Mangorita’s ($300), Pete’s Time Out ($250), Snug Harbor ($250), La Ola ($200) and Salty Crab $287 from a 50/50 raffle they held all day.
“We are so thankful for the generous people and businesses on Fort Myers Beach,” stated Dawn Thomas, Putt & Pub Co-chair. “This event is held so that our local non-profits can raise awareness and funds. We truly feel blessed and we plan to make the 2022 Putt & Pub Event bigger and better than ever.”
