2022-09-21 07:30 - 08:30 (America/New_York) | Doubletree at Bell Tower Shops, 13051 Bell Tower Drive, Fort Myers, 33907, United States
Featured Speaker for September 21st Meeting:Elmer Tabor
Cape Coral Rotary Club
Elmer Tabor grew up in West Virginia before his family moved to Cape Coral, Florida, about 62 years ago. While living in Cape Coral, Tabor has witnessed much of the growth of Southwest Florida. Tabor watched his town grow from a place that did not have stores, restaurants, or parks to a thriving community in Southwest Florida.
Tabor says that witnessing the growth of Cape Coral “gave me the advantage to learn all I could about growth-related issues, be it infrastructure, building codes, zoning, utilities, public reverse osmosis systems, construction types, parks systems, and much more.” With his expanded knowledge of growth issues, Tabor became an owner and broker for Wonderland Realty Inc. Aside from his work in real estate, Elmer Tabor has owned and operated many local Cape Coral businesses ranging from grocery stores and banks.
Outside of owning his businesses, Tabor spends much of his time working to improve the community he loves. Tabor states that his passions are “boating and leaving Cape Coral a better place.” One of the ways Tabor works to benefit his community is with his extensive work with the Cape Coral Rotary Club. With his countless hours provided to the Rotary Club, Cape Coral’s “Community Foundation,” the foundation created the “Elmer Tabor Award” to recognize great philanthropists and humanitarians within Cape Coral.
