CCA to host first ‘Porch & Patio’ for season
Reservations are open for the Captiva Civic Association’s first “Porch & Patio” series event.
The Porch & Patio Social and Season Kick-Off Party will take place on Nov. 13 from 5 to 7 p.m. outdoors on the porch and patio at the Captiva Civic Center on Captiva. Free and open to the public, the casual cocktail party will offer live entertainment and a chance for the community to connect.
“The Porch & Patio is an opportunity for the community to get together and socialize,” Executive Director Emily Hess Ankerson said.
Rex and Ray, of the Rex Bongo Band, will provide music.
“They used to play at George & Wendy’s (Seafood Grille) and often play in other places around the area,” she said, adding that the band had been known to perform both original and cover songs.
Their music has been described as “blues, roots and swamp country rock.”
Catered appetizers will be provided.
There will also be bar refreshments available by donation.
“The donations support the CCA’s programming,” Ankerson said.
The Pfeifer Realty Group is the sponsor for the series.
“We thank the Pfeifer Realty Group for sponsoring the Porch & Patio series for the second year in a row,” she said.
While event is free and open to all, RSVPs are requested.
“We have it on Eventbrite or they can find the link on our website,” Ankerson said.
The community is invited to come out.
“It’s really just a community social event,” she said. “A space for people to come together and socialize with old friends or make new ones — and enjoy our space and the generosity of our season sponsor.”
