VOL. 28, NO. 22 TUESDAY, MAY 30, 1989 TWO SECTIONS, 56 PAGES 50 CENTS Causeway financing: A history of controversy By Steve Ruediger Islander staff writer

The history of financing the Sanibel Causeway is a history of controversy. It is also a story still in the making, with new events and new problems arising. The most recent events, aside from the mounting controversy over new Sanibel bridge proposals, in- cludes the Lee County Commission approval of a bond validation for a $10 million Blind Pass Bridge bond to be paid off from Sanibel Causeway tolls. Another issue is the city's receiving the latest six- month check for their share of bridge revenues. That check was for $404,055.92. Once upon a time ... a bridge to Sanibel was first proposed in 1955 but was not built until 1963. The bond that paid for its cstruction was paid off in 1975. The issue over replacing the causeway bridge continues to heat up. Amid fear that if a use wasn't found for the causeway funds the toll would be eliminated, and questions over the uses suggested for those funds, a SOB committee credo: new bond was issued in 1979. The new bond issue was preceded by three years of court cases over proposed uses for the funds. 'We are a cohesive force and can move a bridge!' The next bond came in 1987.

By Trina • Pieces of Eight Dive Center

Diving conditions have been excellent this week, with calm seas, good visibility and warm waters. Snorkeling also has been excellent, with many good shell finds. Snorkelers report see- ing large schools of small fish in great variety, in addition to lots of colorful tropicals.

Bottom temperature: 79 degrees. Surface temperature: 82 degrees. Visibility: 20-30 feet at 35-foot depth; 25-40 feet across at 55-foot depth.

Now that the diving season is getting going (for those locals who wait for very warm water), it's time to get your equipment checked out and ready. Your regulator should be serviced yearly, whether you used it or not last year. Tanks should have current hydro dates stamped in them, that is, dated within the last five years. Current visual stickers on them should be Photo by JUDY CORRIGAN dated within the last year.

•for interested v, island youngsters

By Rick Fowler Islander staff writer

The Sanibel Recreation Center's Swim Team Program, which begins each June and continues through August, is an opportunity for youngsters to improve their swimming skills. The program is affiliated with Flordia Swim, a not-for-profit cor- poration dedicated to promoting the sport of swimming. In order to participate, children must only be able to swim a full length of the pool. Classifications for swim meets are age 6 and under, ages 7 and 8, ages 9 and 10, ages 11 and 12, ages 13 and 111, IQP 15 and older. Team members will practice several afternoons each week.

Muench, who is of the swim team program. new to the head coaching post, explained that in some competitive leagues the emphasis is placed on "the team" winning, which tends to limit par- ticipation to only those who are highly skilled and highly competitive. The Flordia Swim program, however, seeks to promote the sport of swimming through em- phasizing individual improvement and ac- complishments; thus encouraging a maximimun level of participation. "Everyone is able to share in this experience," MuencH said. Muench, a former swim team member, is begin- ning her first season as a coackin the program.

Tuesday, May 30, 1989 Environment 9B Raising funds for the animals Canterbury youngsters donate to CROW, take tour of island facility

By Steve Ruediger Islander staff writer

First graders from the Canterbury School visited Care and Rehablitation of Wildlife Thurs- day to look at the patients and to present a check to the wildlife facility from funds they raised col- lecting aluminum cans. Richard Chazal, who collected more cans than any of the other students at the private school, said he picked up all the cans he saw on the way home from playing baseball, picked up cans around Lakes Park and asked his babysitters to bring him cans when they came to babysit. The children were shown a gopher tortoise, a small opossum, pelicans and other patients. They were told about each animal by CROW volunteers, who answered the children's questions. Teacher Alice Speakman said the children cleaned up beaches, parks and their neighborhoods collecting cans. It added up to 80 pounds, said Speakman, noting that it takes a lot of aluminum cans to make a pound. Part of the money from the cans was also used to plant a tree.

Canterbury student Richard Chazal presents check to CROW rehabilitator Michael Weingart, top left. The students toured the facilities r and got a close-up look at a lot of the * ** animals. Carol Lowenstein, fop right, shows the youngsters a young opossum.

One of the critters the fifth graders found especially interesting during their CROW tour was a slow-moving tortoise, above, right and far right.
