SANIBEL HISTORICAL MUSEUM AND VILLAGE The city of Sanibel's Time Capsule is on display from now through July 31 in the Shore Haven Welcome Center at the Sanibel Historical Museum and Village on Sanibel.

The Sanibel Historical Museum and Village reported that the city of Sanibel’s Time Capsule is on display from now through July 31 in the Shore Haven Welcome Center on Sanibel.

Previously located at City Hall, the time capsule was opened on Nov. 5 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Sanibel’s incorporation. It was sealed and buried in 1984 on about the 10th anniversary of incorporation as the city’s leaders wanted to acknowledge their decade of achievements and advise citizens, as well as to congratulate and encourage the future city administration and community.

The village noted that many letters and photographs from island clubs and nonprofit entities were placed in the capsule. A selection of the items is included in the exhibit at the welcome center.

To view a PowerPoint presentation of the capsule’s contents, visit mysanibel.com.

The Sanibel Historical Museum and Village is at 950 Dunlop Road, Sanibel.
