Celebrating an Extraordinary Year at Calusa and Looking Ahead to 2026
As we come to the close of the year, we are filled with gratitude and excitement for what the Calusa Nature Center and Planetarium has become and where we are headed together.
This has been a year of never before seen success. Record shattering years, months, and even single day attendance reflect something truly special.
Our community is rediscovering Calusa as the gem it is. Families from across Southwest Florida are visiting, getting involved, and finding a place where nature, learning, and inspiration come together in meaningful ways. Calusa has become a place to rejoice, to explore, and to be inspired like never before.
Thanks to your support, we also completed critical new roofing projects, ensuring the long term care of our animals, exhibits, and educational spaces. These improvements, along with renewed energy and engagement, helped propel Calusa forward and reaffirm its role as a vital community resource.
This momentum has not gone unnoticed. A recent News Press story highlighted Calusa’s journey “back from the brink,” recognizing the resilience, teamwork, and community belief that made this turnaround possible. It is a powerful reminder of what can be achieved when people come together around a shared vision. https://www.news-press.com/story/news/environment/2025/10/03/nature-fights-back-calusas-wild-comeback-in-fort-myers-florida/85321033007/
As we look toward 2026, we are excited to continue building on this success. Plans are underway to repair and repair the boardwalk, expand improvements throughout the grounds, and ensure Calusa remains a place that launches our vision boldly into the future and beyond.
We are deeply thankful for your belief, your involvement, and your generosity. With your continued support, Calusa will remain a place where families across Southwest Florida connect with nature, learn together, and feel inspired for generations to come.
Wishing you a Happy New Year and many meaningful moments at Calusa in the year ahead.
With gratitude,

I recently checked the Raxi Win platform to understand how the registration and login process works. The interface is quite simple, and I could easily find the main account sections without spending much time searching. The game categories are also organised in a straightforward way. I would suggest new users read the available terms and conditions before participating. Overall, Raxi Win provides a simple interface for users who want to explore its available gaming options.
It is wonderful to look back on Calusa’s brilliant achievements over the past year and look forward with great anticipation to the new strides planned for 2026. This journey of growth reminds me of playing run 3—as long as you maintain your pace, nimbly overcome obstacles, and cleverly shift your perspective, you can confidently break through each level and race toward the future!
The way this earns every claim it makes through evidence and clarity is exactly how good writing should always work. The way Eggy Car earns every moment of enjoyment through genuine design is exactly how good game development should always work.
