Monday is Memorial Day, and there are several events going on in Southwest Florida that we want to tell you about.

On Monday, the Southwest Florida Military Museum will hold a Memorial Day tribute, 12 p.m. to 3 p.m. in Cape Coral. Food and beverage will be provided as well as entertainment. The event will also have an exhibit of the USS Nimitz. Organizers say they will follow safety guidelines from the CDC.
