Though the calendar may show it is summer and seasonal residents have returned north, there is a great line-up of social activities and events available for Year Rounders at Fiddler’s Creek, which kicks off with Memorial Day Poolside festivities for the entire family.
The luxury, master-planned residential community located between Naples and Marco Island offers an extensive social calendar during the summer months to entertain its full-time residents. These include special dining events, educational seminars, cooking classes and wine tastings, jewelry classes for the artistic, historic and nature tours, and VIP shopping excursions.
The “Dine Around” events are very popular with Fiddler’s Creek residents. Among the restaurants residents have been exploring this year is Sasso’s International Cuisine & Seafood on Marco Island and the relatively new Alberto’s on Fifth Avenue South in Naples. These special evenings include Happy Hour drinks, complimentary hors d’oeuvres and special dinner pricing.
Residents also are enjoying complimentary educational seminars. One fascinating presentation on “Britain in America and America in Vietnam” at The Club & Spa examines the remarkable parallels of two conflicts over 200 years apart – The American Revolution and Vietnam War.
Among the educational field trips this summer was the Rookery Bay Outing where residents joined the naturalist as they explored the coastal habitats, exhibits, films and art gallery; and a docent-guided tour of the Norris Gardens at Palm Cottage in old Naples as they step back in time and learn about early Naples history and explore Neapolitan life through five historic gardens.
The ladies of Fiddler’s Creek will enjoy a special shopping social hosted by Charming Charlie’s at The Mercato in North Naples. Complimentary cookies and coffee will be served as the ladies search for that very special outfit or essential accessory in their quest to shop until they drop.
Summertime also brings with it special evenings at the Caxambas Restaurant at The Club & Spa at Fiddler’s Creek. One favorite among the Year Rounders is the “Wine Tasting at Caxambas,” followed by the “Bring Your Own Wine” night. Residents also have an opportunity to sample an array of refreshing summer cocktails and martinis specially concocted by the bartenders.
The summertime social activities and events are part of an extensive social calendar provided annually for Fiddler’s Creek homeowners. For many of the community’s residents, these special events and activities are a key factor in their decision to purchase a home at Fiddler’s Creek.
