Hope on Goat Sea Turtle Benefit

A benefit for the Sea Turtles of Cape Romain. Attendees will enjoy traditionally roasted local oysters, fish stew, hot dogs, live music from Perry Darby's Front Porch Pickers, Scottie Frier Band, and Head Band as well as an silent auction and kid station. Bring your own beverages. Space is limited, reserve your tickets early. Transportation provided by Barrier Island Eco Tours. 

Each year over 1000 nests are laid in Cape Romain NWR and most of these nests need to be moved to protect them from predation and high tides. These beaches are only accessible by boat, so this project requires trained staff as well as many volunteers to accomplish this protection.
