Dottie Weiner thanked me and said “These are great memories.” Tara O’Neill wondered if I would include the Driftwood restaurant (how could I miss that?

Those of us, like Paul, who remember the school bus stopping there recall it as less than “ideal;” fortunately for me, I still have photos of it and can count the buildings! Bill and Miff Blair gave me old photos, including the Good- year blimp moored on the south end of the Island. I got great submittals of other ideas for additional questions (the 75 ques- tions in the test were totally my cre- ation), from Frada Roseff, who first came to Marco in 1966, remembering when: Piper Club Aircraft would have their conventions at the Marco Beach Hotel and there would be a “Parade of Piper Clubs on Collier Blvd,” the old “pitch and putt course” near the Voy- ager, Mancuso’s Deli, the movie theater next to the Post Office on Elkcam, when the Concorde flew over the Island dur- ing a travel agent’s convention, and the “bales on the beach!”(For those tour- ists and “newbies” reading this we are not going to tell you what was in those bales!) Also thanks to the first President of the only bank on Marco in 1970, the First Bank of Marco Island, Al Roep- storff who, along with his wife Dee, sent me a great letter reminiscing about the Island, as they stated, when: “Everyone knew everyone, you could build a fire on the beach, have brunch at the Snook Hole or the Lodge, hop in your boat after church and head out to Coconut Island or Little Marco where you met friends and the kids could swim and visit too.” An old phrase says it best – those were the days, my friends….

Are You REALLY a Marco Old Timer? Conclusion

T ime to announce the BIG WIN-NERS…. Drum roll…… and they are…… (in no particular

order): Roy Bartlett, Lou Woessner, Tara O’Neill, Diane Chestnut and Roy Radlovacki!! We gave up trying to se-lect Grand, First, Second, and Third place winners as everyone was coming in so close on scores. So, the major gifts, certificates from Bistro Soleil, The Blue Heron, Café de Marco and DaVinci’s were supplied by Coastal Breeze News and were randomly given out to these winners.

ployees and sales people, and the dif-ferent names of long ago restaurants: Scotsman’s Pub, Jolly Roger, etc. Also to Susie Bartlett who remembered the ever present “Denver Savage,” who was a regular hanging around the 7-11,and re-vealed his real name as Terrance Sutton, as well as remembering my father, Art Woodward.
