Beach campfire jam sessions at the Beach Pub

Be sure to drop by the Beach Pub Wednesday nights, as Lou and Tim have just kicked off Acoustic on the Beach jam sessions. Starting around 5 p.m. and ending around 9 p.m. every Wednesday, locals (and visitors, alike) are encouraged to bring their instruments and jam around a “portable” campfire on the beach, behind the pub. Local rocker Steve “the Lucky Dog” Lutke is the operator of the operation, and says it should be a fun time for all. There are no amps or electrical devices … just an acoustic session of chillin’ melodies in a natural setting. Watch the sun set, the ocean glisten, and let the mood lighten the air and create a little “escape” for just a few hours.

Living Green workshops

Every Wednesday, the public is invited to visit the Eco Living Center at Rutenberg Park in south Lee County to get information on how they can learn more about “green living” at home and work. Aside from displays and free take-home information, there is a different free hour-long workshop every Wednesday from 9 to 10 a.m., followed by a free guided walk through the Florida-friendly landscape demo garden. Reservations are required. Call 432-2163.
