Tuesday, April 19th - 2023 Sea Turtle Nesting Season soon to begin - May 1st

 Many thanks to our returning volunteers, and to our new volunteers.  Your commitment and enthusiasm is greatly appreciated.  All Volunteer Applications have been received, and the teams have been created. I am happy to report that everyone that submitted a form has been assigned on a team.  I wanted to thank those who I have contacted to see if they would change their selected day.  These volunteers graciously moved to another day,   I am so thankful that I did not have to make an executive decision and move people.  All daily teams are full and we have a number of substitute volunteers to cover when needed.

The leads have been working behind the scenes, we have built some additional nest cages, cleaned up the shed, and supplies purchased and stocked.  As we get closer to May 1st, the remaining things will be done.

One of our administrative things to start work on, is the distribution of our merchandise order form for t-shirts, hats and visors.  These items are not mandatory, but if you wish to purchase the form has been sent to you.

Additional instructional emails will be sent out as we get closer to May 1st.
