After nearly two-and-a-half years of being closed, the Fort Myers Beach Library re-opened Sunday with a big celebration and ribbon-cutting ceremony. About 400 people attended the 4-hour event that included tours of the library, food trucks and live music.
Operations Manager Lizbeth Mullenax said, “I was very happy with the way the opening panned out, it was wonderful to see so many of our community members on hand for our grand re-opening. We are thrilled to be back open and serving the community once again.”
Event organizer and Friends of The Library member Jan Fleming said, “We couldn’t be happier with the turnout and all of the kind words spoken, and it was so heartwarming to see the number of people who attended. There were smiles and some tears all around.Â
With every opening, FMB moves forward one day at a time. We’re coming back.”
