The Sanibel Historical Museum and Village on Sanibel reported that a group of volunteers recently spent a weekend working in Miss Charlotte’s Tea Room and the Burnap Fishing Cottage. Artifacts were reinstalled that had been moved out as a part of the restoration efforts after Hurricane Ian. Some of the buildings needed substantial structural reinforcement before they could be reoccupied and restoration efforts are finally coming to a completion. The museum is hoping that the Schoolhouse and Rutland House will soon be available to do the same inside.
