25 years later, we still uphold our pledge to remember, honor, and never forget the lives lost on September 11, 2001.

The stories of first responders and citizens who persevered in the face of danger, loved ones' last messages to their families, and extraordinary acts of compassion between strangers. Together, these stories reveal America's heart and strength as it overcame one of its darkest days.

May the stories of Patriot Day continue to be told and be the source of our country’s fight to protect our freedoms.

Something wonderful is taking shape at the table.

From lunch after a morning on the beach to dinner with friends at sunset, dining is part of what makes life at Pelican Bay special.

Now, a new Food & Beverage leadership team is bringing fresh ideas, extensive experience, and a shared passion for hospitality to Marker 36, Sandbar and The Nest.

Led by Director of Food and Beverage Marco Garnica, the team includes Chef Fabio Bermudez, Chris Wright, Kevin Adames, and Chef Rushaune “Rush” Thompson.

Together, they are focused on what matters most: thoughtfully prepared food, greater consistency, warm and personal service, and restaurants with their own distinctive personalities.

This is just the beginning, with new flavors, experiences, and memorable moments ahead for Pelican Bay members.”

Meet the team shaping the next chapter of dining at Pelican Bay.

Sometimes, one idea can make a difference far beyond what anyone imagined.

Nearly 20 years ago, Pelican Bay resident Christine Popper saw children in Haiti struggling to learn because they did not have enough to eat. She shared an idea with her son, Steve: find a way to provide meals.

That idea helped spark what would become Meals of Hope, founded by Steve Popper in Naples in 2007. Today, the organization provides food assistance to thousands of families throughout Southwest Florida, including a growing number of seniors facing food insecurity.

This week, Christine joined family, friends, and volunteers for a meal-packing event. It was a special full-circle moment for an idea that began nearly two decades ago and continues to make a difference for people in our community and beyond.

We are proud to have Christine as part of the Pelican Bay community and to share the story of one resident whose desire to help others inspired something much bigger.

A tiny journey to a big adventure! 🐢🌊

Members, guests, and staff gathered along the rails of Marker 36 to see a group of sea turtle hatchlings make their way to the ocean, one flipper at a time.

We wish these precious hatchlings safe travels as they begin their life at sea.
