Islanders provide tax time help with returns ByANNEBELLEW Islander staff writer Five islanders, working through AARP (American Association of Retired Persons), are providing tax services on Sanibel to anyone who wants help with their tax returns. And they'd be happy to have more volunteers. The services are available through VITA and TCE — Volunteers in Tax Assistance and Tax Counseling for the Elderly — two taxpayer-friendly pro- grams offered by the IRS. Tax counseling is offered at the Senior Center from Feb. 3 to April 14 and Ed Meyers, who is in charge this year, is very excited about the Sanibel facility being one of only two locations in southwest Florida which can provide elec- tronic filing for tax-payers. "The difference is that, if a refund is due, you get'it, usually, within 21 days with electronic filing. And we all know how long'ft takes when we file paper returns. This is strictly because Jane Klasing and the Island Seniors are proving computers on which we use the IRS's Tax Wise program." Ree Center grows The program is not available to businesses. "Well, perhaps we could work The Rec Center addition features a revamped weight room with a lot of new with something like a one-person operation out of the home, but not your aver- equipment and a multi-purpose room, which will be used for police and fire age business," Meyers said. However, anyone other than a business can get help department in-service training. Andrew Reding, whose "Baby" the addition was, according to Mayor Walfy Kain, stressed that no taxpayer money was used for the (Continued, page 4A) facility —that the money all came from impact fees, from Captiva as well as Sanibel.

RUG Both 'Tween Waters and Sundial describe their Christmas week business as about 434-9584 the same as last year — the week before kind of slow, but starting on Saturday, "pretty CENTER full, pretty full." "I find it interesting how many repeat guests we have," said Douglas Rucker of Sundial. "Five, seven, ten years they've been spending Christmas Day with family and coming in here the day or two days after. They seemed to have a lot of fun this year, despite the weather. There were a lot. of activities and things to do." Shane Beach of (941)437-6010 'Tween Waters added, "And New Year's Eve was very busy." It was at the Riviera Restaurant, too. "Up, up, up — much higher than last year," was the way co-owner Sheila Mucciga described their holiday business. "I didn't have Mon.-Fri 9am-6pm • Sat !0am-4pm time to turn around or do anything else. It's been wonderful; we're just euphoric." Best Western manager Don Williams said, "We were pretty busy. And, kind of surprisingly, we're still busy. It looks like January's going to be a good month too — right on up to season.
