City of Marco Island To Celebrate 25 Years with Events

On August 27, 1997 the people of Marco Island voted to incorporate and become a City. In preparation for the 25th Anniversary, the City has established a 25th Anniversary Celebration Committee including representatives from the Chamber of Commerce, the Marco Island Historical Museum, the Marco Island Civic Association (MICA), the Marco Island Center for the Arts, the Marco YMCA, Marco Island Academy, the Marco Island Charter Middle School, Tommie Barfield Elementary School, Collier County Public Library on Marco Island, the Marco Island Historical Society, and City staff. The committee has developed plans for celebrating the 25th Anniversary each day during the week of August 21st. 

Details of each day’s events will be published throughout June, July and August. #Marco25 will be featured on signs, t-shirts, and on social media to highlight and tag each celebratory event.
