World Sea Turtle Day Celebration
Join us in celebrating World Sea Turtle Day!
Each year, this day is celebrated to share the importance of sea turtles. As keystone species, they play a vital role in our ecosystem, and without them, many other species could not flourish.
On June 15 & 16, we will be celebrating this special day with arts & crafts, educational activities, animal encounters, and presentations!
Schedule:
10 AM – 1 PM – Discovery Table
11 AM – 2 PM – Arts & Crafts
1:30 PM – Shark & Ray Presentation (featuring Sapphire, the loggerhead sea turtle)
2:30 PM – Sea Turtle Presentation
All activities are included with admission.
