Amazingly most of them survived Hurricane Ian.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Ellie says all of the records were lost in the storm and there were probably bricks ordered and paid for just before the storm but never delivered. \u201cIf you ordered a brick, please let us know and we will make sure we make one for you. If you haven\u2019t ordered one yet, there is still time. Just go to our website <a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"http:\/\/eihsonlineshopping.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">eihsonlineshopping.com<\/a> and pay for the brick or send a check for $100 to:<br \/>Ellie Bunting<br \/>21681 Indian Bayou Drive<br \/>Fort Myers Beach, FL 33931.<\/p>\n<p>You will then be sent an email asking what you would like on the brick. Once all of that information is in, a mock-up will be created for your approval and then the brick will be sent off to be engraved.<\/p>\n<p>If you previously ordered and paid for a brick, please send Ellie your contact information and what you would like on the brick. You have three lines with 13 characters per line counting spaces.<br \/>LINE 1<br \/>LINE 2<br \/>LINE 3<\/p>\n<p>The plan is to have all of the bricks completed by the end of May when The Matanzas Pass Preserve is scheduled to reopen. The Friends of Matanzas Pass Preserve are planning a grand opening and the hope is to have all of the new bricks in by then.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>        &#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n        &#13;<br \/>\n                        &#13;<br \/>\n            &#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n                        Previous article<a href=\"https:\/\/beachtalkradionews.com\/bunche-beach-preserve-to-close-temporarily\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Bunche Beach Preserve To Close Temporarily<\/a>            \t                &#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; Estero Island Historical Society President Ellie Bunting tells Beach Talk Radio, \u201cWe are&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":211803,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[209,211,210],"class_list":["post-211802","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cape-coral","tag-cape-coral","tag-cape-coral-headlines","tag-cape-coral-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/211802","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=211802"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/211802\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/211803"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=211802"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=211802"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=211802"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
