FORT MYERS, Fla. (Feb. 4, 2025) – At the Feb. 3 Fort Myers City Council Meeting, Mayor Kevin Anderson proclaimed Feb. 21, 2025, Government Communicators Day, a special day dedicated to recognizing and celebrating the invaluable contributions of public communicators across the nation.
As part of the proclamation, Anderson addressed the City’s Office of Communications and Public Affairs team and police and fire personnel: Noelle Casagrande, Kristin Capuzzi, Andrea Guerrero, Megan Fuentes and Ariana Arias.
