The ball is the latest incarnation of a celebration that commemorates when North Captiva split from Captiva in October 1921 when a hurricane created Redfish Pass, separating the landmass. Previously connected, the powerful storm surge carved a channel, dividing the island into the separate islands of Captiva and North Captiva.
