Please see the informative email that Angelos emailed to all of our walkers today. As many things in our lives have changed, our Sea Turtle patrolling is also impacted. I know that everyone is excited and biting at the bit to get walking on Waties again, but we must follow the issued directives to ensure that all stay healthy. As they say "This too shall pass". I've included some pictures to help remember our wonderful island.
May the Sea Turtle Force be with us all.

Dear Waties turtle nesters,
I hope my message finds you well, healthy and safe.
Firstly, you are receiving this message because you are on our Waties Island Sea Turtle mailing list. If you wish to be removed from the list and no longer wish to receive communications, or to change your contact info, please send an email to witurtles@gmail.com. We are sorry to see you go, but understand this is a large commitment. If you wish to rejoin in the future, again send an email to witurtles@gmail.com.
Regarding the upcoming season, this would be the time when we'd be scheduling our inaugural meeting, ordering t-shirts and hats, and REALLY getting excited about another season of turtle nesting monitoring at our beloved Waties Island.
Given the obvious, things are on hold. To quote the SC DNR Turtle Program’s latest communication:
“SCDNR staff are working from home and not allowed to conduct field work. Therefore by extension, all activities performed by volunteers in the field on behalf of SCDNR, are also on hold at this time.”
We are monitoring the situation and we will keep you posted. Keep checking your email address, our blog (http://witurtles.blogspot.com) and our Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/Waties-Island-Turtle-Watch-182846128434586/) for updates.
Best wishes to you and your loved ones!
