The Montage Women’s Club is a social and philanthropic club open to all women residing in Lee County. We normally meet on the fourth Thursday of each month. Our April meeting will take place at the Hilton Garden Inn (Captiva Ballroom), 12600 University Drive, Fort Myers 33908, corner of College Parkway at the Summerlin Road overpass. Meetings begin at 11:30 a.m. with a short social period followed by lunch at noon followed by an informative speaker program and a short business meeting. Within the organization are various interest groups for members’ participation. Membership is open to both year-round and seasonal residents. We welcome you to visit Montage for a luncheon.
Our next meeting will be held on Thursday, April 24. Our speaker will be Mike Corradino, who operated the Florida Monkey Sanctuary for 20 years where he and his staff cared for over 600 monkeys from 67 species with as many as 160 animals at one time.
In addition to being the country’s first “official” monkey catcher, Corradino served as the official gorilla consultant for Ringling Brothers Circus in 1968. Many zoos have adopted his techniques as well as having had published articles in several scientific journals.
Luncheon fee will be $30 per person, and you always have a choice of either a regular menu entree and/or a vegan plant-based entree.
