The Dubin Center will host its Backyard Game Day event from 4 to 7 p.m. on Sunday, May 18, at Bay Street Yard in downtown Fort Myers.

Proceeds from the event will support the center in providing services to local families affected by Alzheimer’s and dementia, and a lively tournament featuring ping pong, cornhole and more in the heart of downtown Fort Myers’ River District.

Founded in 1995, The Dubin Center supports individuals with dementia-related disorders and their caregivers by prioritizing comfort, dignity, compassionate care and education through resources, training and outreach specifically designed for family caregivers. The center provides caregiver education, support groups and assistance with resource referrals.

Services are offered at no cost, made possible by the generous donations and fundraising efforts of the community.
