Neighbors from Port Royal to Park Shore will have other options to spend their beautifully sunny days other than the beach, boat, or golf course. 5th Avenue South in downtown Old Naples will be hosting several events during the month of January 2013. The utilization of 5th Avenue South for these types of events throughout the year is one of the reasons Naples, Florida is such a special and unique place to live. It is a great opportunity to experience a "small town USA" atmosphere. Friends and neighbors having fun in the breezes sweeping off the Gulf of Mexico as the sun shines and the palm trees sway makes Naples a great place to Live Exceptionally.
