Please lets make this night happen. Contact me at 239-210-8245 and I will get your donations to Dave Chafin. The city said they will let the night happen now that Dave has raised $7,000 of the funds needed. Any donations can help.
Parks and Recreation of Cape Coral, Florida have decided to not support the Cinco deMayo celebration in down town Cape Coral this year because 2 sponsors backed out. This is the 2nd busiest and profitable day for local business owners in this area. Often the proceeds from this one day help carry the local businesses into the "off season."
Dave Chafin of the Twisted Conch is on a mission to raise the $10,000 needed to keep this day happening.
So far he raised $4,500.... He needs HELP to keep this annual tradition going. Call Dave with your donation at 230-410-0894 and lets help keep these businesses in the Cape running through another year.
KEEP IT IN THE CAPE!
If you can't reach Dave then stop in at the Twisted Conch located at 837 SE 47th Terrace, Cape Coral, Florida
Let's all help this annual event take place.

Hi Mary: I hope you all are able to raise the necessary cash to be able to go ahead with your celebration. I am thinking that the two sponsors who cancelled should be boycotted. Their cancelling the sponsorship was extremely short sighted.
Thank you so much for your comment. The economy is tough for everyone right now. If we can't help to keep these down town small businesses open for the off season I'd be really bummed. These folks are working day and night to make the community desireable. Then the city says No funds available? Ugh. Any donations are welcomed.
It's funny to me that America loves Cinco de Mayo more than Mexico... that being said... I hope they save it... i LOVE that holiday. Looks like it's off to a good start.
