In 1998, the Consul General of Switzerland in Atlanta, brought together two local Swiss, who independently had the intention of founding a regional club in Southwest Florida. A lot of work by them in collecting local addresses and finding interested people resulted in the formation of the Swiss American Club of Southwest Florida in November of the same year. About 150 people who live in the area from Punta Gorda in the North to Marco Island in the South attended the festive affair at Kensington Golf & Country Club in Naples, and most of them joined before the evening was over.

· sharing of information about Florida and the United States.

The group normally meets once a month for socializing, dinners, guest speakers, Bingo, games, etc. In the past members have enjoyed a tour of a local Sheriff's Office, performances by music groups, sunset cruises, the annual picnic, and the Christmas Party including a visit from Santa.
The annual dues are $30 for singles, $40 for couples, and $50 for a family with children under 18 years.
