Summer Sea Turtle work

Rosalyn may have chosen the most fun and rewarding project to do her service learning with the Share the Beach program!


"Share the Beach is a charter program from the Friends of Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge and partnered with a myriad of state, federal and local agencies...As a volunteer, my main job is in the assistance in nest relocations and then after nest replacement, barricading the nest is the next most important step.  Once the eggs hatch we must guide the baby sea turtles into the water....I take it upon myself to also clean the beach by collecting trash while I do my scouting runs as well. Plastics are a huge killer of sea turtles."
