In this very special episode of Good Morning Marco, Jordan and Ryan have the pleasure of exploring Castaways Park, Marco Island’s newest scenic spot focused on free, accessible fitness for all ages. 🏞️☀️
We kick things off with a shoutout to our sponsor, Kava Culture Marco Island—the island’s only non-alcoholic bar. Mention Good Morning Marco and get 10% off your order! 🍍☕
Then we head into a lighthearted intro (with some Disney Channel blooper energy) before diving into all things Castaways Park:
– Adult-friendly fitness stations like monkey bars, pull-up bars, and step-up platforms 🏋️♂️
– Scenic views, dog-friendly vibes, and a peaceful atmosphere 🐾
– Honest critiques on parking, amenities, and naming choices (RIP Parky McParkface)
– Local insight into The Watermark assisted living facility and past controversies
– Reflections on community health, environmental design, and civic engagement
We also give updates on Marco Island City Council, including the appointment of Rene Champagne, and discuss how Florida’s Sunshine Law complicates casual podcast appearances by council members. ⚖️
Plus, we tease an upcoming episode that’s so big… we had to sign NDAs.
📊 Highlights:
– 11% tree coverage on Marco vs. FL’s 35% avg
– $180/month gym fees vs. free fitness at the park
– Marco in Bloom contest entries jumped from 3 to 26
Catch it all in this episode—from fitness trails to city politics, Good Morning Marco keeps you connected to all things Marco, Naples, and Collier County.
