Please Read Before You RSVP

I have reserved 10 spots for Southwest Florida Solos, so please RSVP only if you are committed to attending. If something comes up and you can no longer make it, please update your RSVP as soon as possible so your spot can be offered to another member.

There is no cost to participate.

Let’s spend a Saturday morning outdoors, meet some fellow members, and do a little good for Southwest Florida while we’re at it. 🌿💚
