Dear members,
I inadvertently referenced January instead of May in the header of the original issue of this flyer. That has been corrected. My apologies for any confusion this may have caused.

On May 2, 2013 we are planning an excursion to Shark Valley in the Everglades National Park
We'll take a 2-hour tram tour through the Park. The entrance fee is $10.oo per car. The tram tour fee is $16.00 per person.
The tour will start at 11:00AM. We should arrive at the park around 10:30. The driving time from Naples is about 1.5 hours. Leaving Naples at 9:00 a.m. will provide sufficient driving time.
Lunch is planned at the Miccosukee Restaurant, just across from the Park entrance, at 1:15 p.m.
Shark Valley Tram Tours offers a two-hour, open air tour through the Shark Valley section of Everglades National Park. All tours are led by park trained naturalists, fully prepared to make our journey a memorable one. Beside giving insight into the ecosystem as a whole, our guide will also point out some of the 'hidden' aspects which help to make this a world renown wetlands. The open vehicles allow visitors to view wildlife within the sawgrass prairies on either side of the tram.
At the half-way point of the tour, a 45 foot high observation deck gives visitors an opportunity to enjoy the tranquil vistas of the Everglades, extending outward 20 miles in all directions. A gradual ramp provides easy access to the observation tower deck, and every part of the ramp and deck provide chances to view something different.
