Chamber TrendsReopening Florida – Phase 1

On behalf of the Chamber Staff and Board, we hope

you are all doing well as we continue to navigate

through the updates and information being dispersed

as we start to re-open our state and our businesses.

As you are aware, May 4th marked the start of phase

1 of the Governor’s plan to re-open our businesses

with his SAFE. SMART. STEP-BY-STEP Plan. All Florida

counties except for Miami-Dade, Palm Beach and Broward, will begin to

reopen in steps.

Here is a brief breakdown of Phase 1 of his plan.

FLORIDA PHASE 1

• Schools remain distance learning.

• Visits to senior living facilities are prohibited.

• Elective surgeries can resume.

• Restaurants may off er outdoor seating with six-foot space

between tables and indoor seating at 25% capacity.

• Retail can operate at 25% of indoor capacity.

• No change for bars, gyms, and personal services such as

hairdressers.

• Vulnerable individuals should avoid close contact with people

outside the home.

• All individuals, when in public, should maximize physical

distance from others.

• Avoid socializing in groups of more than 10 people in

circumstances that do not readily allow for physical distancing.

• Face masks are recommended for all those in face to face

interactions and where you can’t social distance.

Lee County has also opened a new state supported COVID-19 drive-thru

It’s that time of year again! The Chamber of Commerce of Cape Coral is actively seeking trustee and director applications

for the 2021 Board of Directors.

These volunteer leaders are required to attend monthly board meetings, networking events and serve on committees.

This committee creates the policies, positions and direction for the organization often with advisement of other

committees and task forces. Board members are encouraged to participate in one or more chamber committees so

that they can report committee activities to the Board of Directors monthly.

Board members are also encouraged to attend membership functions and further the communication of chamber

issues. For most, a minimum of 5 to 10 hours per month is normal. However, a few give much more. The board meets

the last Tuesday of every month at 7:30 am We truly appreciate their commitment, as the Chamber would only be able

to accomplish one-half of what it does without volunteers.

The Chamber Nomination Committee is being formed with Zack Zeis as the Chairman. They are taking applications so

that they can create a ballot of qualifi ed members for the Board to vote on in August and September of 2020.

Every eligible member in good standing who applies will be placed on the ballot. However, the Nomination committee

will make recommendations to the board prior to the vote. Recommendations made by the nomination committee are

based on industry, involvement and participation in the Chamber leadership programs.

If you have any questions, please contact the President/CEO, Donna Germain at (239) 549-6900 ext. 107 or donna@

capecoralchamber.com.

The deadline for application submission is July 1, 2020

We still need your help! COVID-19 is changing healthcare

and how we respond daily. Your donations and support of SWFL

Stronger Together will provide critical resources, equipment and

supplies needed to support our healthcare heroes fi ghting this

pandemic on the frontline.

We know times are tough for everyone, and there is a great

humanitarian need; this collaborative campaign is ensuring the

best healthcare for all citizens in SWFL.

Lee Health and NCH are non-profi t healthcare systems.

Philanthropy is at the crux of our ability to provide state of the art

care and resources.

This campaign is working to funnel critical resources to both

systems. The awareness is vital for not just the donations, which are

funding essential supplies and caring for healthcare workers, but

also for the in-kind support which has shared strength and love

with our frontline heroes.

Did you know?

• The average cost of healthcare workers’ personal

protection equipment, e.g., N95 masks, gown and face shields, is

$100/day.

• During the pandemic, Lee Health is feeding all of its

healthcare workers, on all shifts, at the cost of $17,000/week.

• iPads have become an essential tool to help our nurses

connect patients with their families while we have a no visitor

policy. We are using donated funds to purchase more iPads for

parents of newborns to share the birth with their families, for

COVID patients to see their families, for patients having surgery or

in a car accident to be able to communicate with loved ones. Each

iPad costs $400. So far we have purchased 100.

• We use sterilization robots to zap more germs faster.

We need more in each hospital. Sterilization robots cost $100,000

each.

The human impact of your gift is real.

Your donation ensures that a doctor or nurse isn’t thinking

about food, shopping, or bringing in lunch. iPads have been so

successful that the system asked us to buy as many as we can. Staff

are loving it as it helps with patient morale.

We know there a many needs across the region, and

we know times are tough on everyone. Gifts of time, talent, and

treasure are making us Stronger Together. That’s the message of this

joint campaign. We are #SWFLStrongerTogether.

To make a gift or learn more, please visit SWFLTogether.org.

Thank you for your continued support. We are here for you!

As your health systems, our goal is to help SWFL get back to normal

operations both in wellnesses and in business.

Thank you for all those that have already stepped forward

with a gift or in-kind donation. We are forever grateful.

Stay Well!
