MICA will host its first annual Family Fun Day from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., Saturday, at the Marco Island Residents’ Beach. There will be live entertainment, games and treats for the kids, and hamburgers and hot dogs fired up on the grill. A good, old-fashioned picnic is planned at the Residents’ Beach.

J. Robert will be front and center on his fiddle and will be performing with a few other local musicians. They are gearing up to play some extra special songs for their fellow islanders.

A fantastic round of games is planned for the children. Tug of war, hoola-hoop contests, super-size Frisbee toss, and fastest boy and fastest girl races are all on the list as well as a fun game of beach volleyball. Get ready for some fun!

The Marco Island Kiwanis Club will also be offering islanders a chance to win a mini-vacation in a luxurious 2-bedroom, 2-bath fully-furnished condo for only five dollars! The winner can choose four days, three nights at Hilton Grand Vacations Club in Orlando, Miami-South Beach or the Flamingo in Las Vegas! The drawing will be at 3 p.m. at Residents’ Beach. The winner does not have to be present. Tickets are only $5 each or five for $20. You can buy tickets at Residents’ Beach or call raffle chairman Brian Barcic at 394-3925 or 293-3935. You can also buy tickets from any Kiwanis Club member or online at www.kiwanisclubofmarcoisland.org. You could win a fantastic getaway and help children at the same time! All proceeds from ticket sales go to Marco Island Kiwanis’ programs for kids — including college scholarships.

Residents’ Beach members should bring their beach IDs in order to enter. If you’re not a Residents’ Beach member, but you are a resident of Marco Island, this is your chance to see what you’ve been missing.

We’ll give you a special pass for Family Fun Day because we are so sure you’ll want to become a member yourself!
