IT WAS FANTASTIC!
March, 20, 2023: On the Beach at the Sandcastle Resort, and we mean toes in the sand. Over 150 residents and their guests got together to celebrate our piece of paradise. The committee did an incredible job organizing, the Sandcastle staff and management were hands on making sure this would be an event to remember and Scott Alan brought his "island music attitude" that perfectly complimented a sunny but cool evening. Lots of suggestions that we should make this an Annual Event
Our Annual Breakfast Meeting is held starting at 9:00 am on the 3rd Saturday of February. following by our February Membership Meeting.
PROGRAM: Our guest speaker in 2023 was John McCarthy, Vice President for Regional History (Marie Selby Botanical Gardens). John made a memorable presentation at our 50 Year Gala in March of 2023 leaving us all with the feeling we wanted more. We invited him back and he delivered. Plan on attending next year's Annual Breakfast scheduled for February 17, 2024.
About 75 Lido Key Residents were able to share a memorable evening at Florida Studio's Theater for the production of Something Rotten on January 8th, 2023. A special thank-you to Pat NIcosia, Lido Surf and Sands and Florida Studio Theater for their work in making this memorable event happen. LKRA Board hopes we can make this an annual event.
