SanCap Chamber Luncheon

As the SanCap Chamber continues its Preserving Paradise leadership program, connecting the dots between local ecology and economy, it has invited The Everglades Foundation Chief Executive Officer Eric Eikenberg to speak at its Wednesday, Sep. 18, business luncheon starting at 11:30 a.m. at The Community House on Sanibel Island.

The Everglades Foundation is one of three organizations partnering with the chamber for Preserving Paradise, along with Captains for Clean Water and SCCF (Sanibel-Captiva Conservation Foundation). Charitable Foundation of the Islands (CFI) sponsors the September luncheon.

Eikenberg, a seasoned political strategist and environmental policy expert, leads one of the country’s most prestigious and respected environmental non-profits. As CEO of the Everglades Foundation, he oversees a team of nationally recognized scientists, educators, lobbyists, and communications and development professionals who work together to achieve a decades-long campaign to restore America’s Everglades – roughly three million acres of endangered habitat that is vital to Florida’s economic and environmental viability.

The chamber business lunch is a monthly networking opportunity held at various member locations. The chamber strives to provide speakers to discuss business topics relevant to the membership. SanCap Chamber members receive meeting invitations by email. Cost for luncheon attendance is $35 for chamber members only.

Advanced registration is required to attend; walk-ins are not accepted. Register by 5 p.m. on Friday, Sep. 13, at sanibel-captiva.org or by contacting Aaron Walton at [email protected] or (239) 472-8759. Payment is due at time of registration.
