Gatherings Grove is really two groves in one. The best of two periods in time. One grove is from the early years of mango cultivation in Southwest Florida. The 1930’s and 1940’s were a time when life was a great deal slower and less complicated in certain ways. In fact, back then you might have seen the Bailey brothers walking down Quail Trail here in Bokeelia after a long hot day working in their new grove. Ralph and Cefus Bailey weren’t afraid of hard work and they proved it by growing some of the finest mangoes around. They grew the first Bailey’s Marvel mango tree in the world and the same original tree is still standing here in the old grove.

Bert’s Bar is composed of two buildings. The original building was the bar near the road. It was built in the 30’s as a “sweet shop”. Then in 1941 the hotel building was built. It consisted of eight sleeping rooms. During WWII, army bases were set up at Page Field and many of the soldiers would come out for a weekend to Matlacha to go fishing off the “fishingest bridge in Florida” at Matlacha Pass. They became regular customers of the hotel and bar. The hotel had the reputation of “ill repute” and ladies of the night. Imagine that!

The Museum of the Islands is housed in what was once the island’s first (and only) public library, built by volunteers in the early 1960s. When the library moved to a larger facility, a new group of volunteers stepped forward to secure the building as the home of a museum about the islands, their history and lifestyle. Museum of the Islands is a major feature for visitors, tourists, winter residents and their guests as well as native Pine Islanders who love their past. Manned and developed entirely by volunteers, the museum has hosted an amazing number of visitors over the years. Our guest book shows visitors from all over the world and many repeat visitors.

As the old saying goes, art is in the eye of the beholder. I invite you to take a minute to explore the twinkle in mine. Since I can remember I have been enchanted with color and sound. The way natural colors merge into the landscape shared with the sweet whispers of life. The kaleidoscope of colors in a sunset, ever changing, inspiring a rush of emotions that electrifies my soul. Through my art I hope to pass these feeling unto you. Each painting I create is an attempt to capture a brief moment in time. Each windchime celebrates life with its own unique sound. I imagine every JohnyMan as a sentinel, steadily, quietly witnessing life and hopefully adding a smile onto one’s face. On the following pages I bare my soul, do as you may with it. John Betts

Founded in the early 1960’s by a small group of hobby enthusiasts, Saint James City Civic Association started as a “Hobby Club”. As the club gained more and more members, they realized they needed a central meeting place. Through fundraisers and generous donations, the ladies of the club negotiated the purchase of land in Saint James City, Florida. The seller of the property graciously donated one-half of the proceeds from the sale back to the organization to support the club’s vision, and The Saint James City Civic Association was born!
