JANUARY 2012

Welcome to Englewood and the surrounding area of Southwest Florida. The site has grown over the years and become quite large. In addition, the area is always in a state of change and we pride ourselves on keeping the site as current as possible. The date you see at the top of the page tells you when the last changes were made.

Keep coming back to this site because we are constantly updating it with new features, places and photographs of events that have taken place.

The first "Cruizin on Dearborn Street" of 2012 turned out to be the best display of cars and the largest turnout of people. Not only were there some old classics but also a number of exotics that will, no doubt, become classics in the future.
Featured on the right is 1936 Railton Tourer, which were highly regarded in racing circles. The engine is a Hudson 8 and the aluminum body is by Carbodies of England.
Look through the photo's of the event and see if you can see some of your favorites. CLICK HERE

The Lemon Bay Garden Club hosted it's Fall Garden Tour of a number of homes in the Englewood area.

The care and maintenance that goes into producing the quality of the
gardens was outstanding and a testiment to the owners for their efforts.

To see a few of the gardens in more detail, look at the Englewood blog navigation bar or just click here.


The Winter Arts Festival, sponsored by the Olde Englewood Village Association was held on Dec. 4th and 5th. Once again the weather cooperated, partly cloudy skies and temperatures around the 80 degree mark made for a good couple of days for all concerned.
The quality of the art is always first class, whether it is in the form of painting, sculpture, woodwork or jewelry.

Englewood Beach

One of the concerns we hear from visitors to the site is "How badly were the beaches affected by the oil spill in the Gulf"? "Has it ruined the beaches?". All are valid questions, but the truth of the matter is that NO OIL EVER REACHED OUR BEACHES. The shorebirds nesting season is over along the beaches, sea turtles have layed their eggs and the hatchlings have been gone for a while, and fishing in the area has not been affected.

Benches on DearbornThe Englewood Blog updates visitors every couple of months with new restaurants opening, businesses changing hands and other items of interest affecting the community. The EVENTS button, on the left, takes you to a list of upcoming events.

 

 

Whether you are planning a vacation, looking for a retirement destination, exploring a relocation to an area that is safe for your children and has opportunities for growth, or a "second home" where you can escape the winter weather and enjoy time on the beach, then Englewood could be the perfect place for you.
