On April 16th, the Emerald Coast Wildlife Refuge will hold their annual Earth Day celebration. This day celebrates sustainability for the planet, nature, and wildlife.
The Earth Day celebration will happen regardless of the weather and will have various areas set up to learn about:
- Marine mammals
- Recycling
- Wildlife Rehabilitation
- Citizen Assistance
Other activities such as arts and crafts and interactions with ambassadors of the refuge will be available, such as meeting the wildlife’s Gopher Tortoise, named “Landlord”.
- Special event admission is $5 for each person, except for children 2 and under, who are always free.
The celebration will start at 9:00 am on April 16th and end at 3:00 pm with timed demonstrations occurring every half hour.
Additional information can be found on the event page through ECWR’s Facebook.
