Monofilament Madness
2021-11-06 08:00 - 12:00 UTC
The KLCB Marine Cleanup is an annual event during which volunteers go out in boats, kayaks, canoes, jet skis and anything else that floats, to remove monofilament fishing line and other harmful debris from the mangrove areas of Lee County. The boaters begin working at safe light (dawn) and continue until around noon at which time they are treated to a Volunteer Appreciation Lunch by Sam Galloway Ford. Because of the focus on fishing line, the project committee has affectionately dubbed the cleanup “Monofilament Madness”. It is hoped that through educational awareness, the people who are causing the problem will be reached and their behavior modified so that, among other reasons, wildlife will be spared agonizing deaths from entanglement in monofilament fishing line.
Meet at the Mound House: 451 Connecticut St, Fort Myers Beach, FL 33931

Our next major fundraising event is our Virtual Auction!

It will go online Thursday, March 11, 2021 and end Saturday, March 20, 2021.
Many of your favorite local businesses (and individuals) have generously donated valuable merchandise, gift cards, unique “experiences” and more!
Bidding will take place online, and there is no need for you to leave the comforts of your own home to take part in our Virtual Auction!

Our hope for this event is that it will bring the FMBCF closer to our goal of raising $21,000 in 2021, so we can give it away! Please check back to our website and on our Facebook page for more information as we get closer to the start of the event.
