$1 per drink in December benefits CROW – Clinic for the Rehabilitation of Wildlife
WHO: Luminary Hotel & Co., downtown Fort Myers’ boutique waterfront hotel, and its signature dining outlets: The Silver King Coastal Kitchen, Lobby Bar, Beacon Social Drinkery and Chips Sports Pub.
WHAT: Last week’s widely covered coyote encounter in the city-managed parking garage beside the hotel sparked widespread local curiosity, prompting Luminary Hotel & Co. to channel the attention into something meaningful.
Now through December 31, the hotel is offering a limited-edition cocktail, The Curious Coyote, at select outlets, including Beacon Social Drinkery, The Silver King Coastal Kitchen, Chips Sports Pub & Topgolf Swing Suite, and the Lobby Bar. The drink blends blanco tequila, fresh lime, agave, and grapefruit soda ($14). For every cocktail sold, Luminary will donate $1 to CROW (Clinic for the Rehabilitation of Wildlife) to bolster its rescue and rehabilitation programs for native wildlife throughout Southwest Florida.
“At Luminary Hotel & Co., we’re part of the fabric of downtown,” said Joe Shurmur, General Manager. “The coyote’s safe exit from the garage was a good outcome, and it reminded everyone that Florida’s wildlife shows up in unexpected ways. Turning that moment into support for CROW felt like the right thing to do.”
WHEN: Now through December 31, 2025
WHERE: Luminary Hotel & Co. – 2200 Edwards Drive, Fort Myers, Florida
