Seagrass Fundraiser!
Details
What is the Seagrass Fundraiser! you ask?
Why it's the seagrass event of the year!
Everyone is welcome - Please RSVP - TarponSpringsKayakers@gmail.com
All proceeds will go to local seagrass research and education through Tampa Bay Estuary Program and UF IFAS Florida Sea Grant Pasco County.
Sadly, seagrass meadows are dying off at an alarming rate and they need our help.
Seagrasses feed our beloved manatees and sea turltes, prevent shoreline erosion, and are home to fish, scallops, sea stars, sea horses, and so many more! They also are an incredible carbon sink absorbing about 35 times more carbon than a rain forest!
🎉 Festivities: Local booths, food and drinks, guest speakers including Tampa Bay Estuary Program and Dr. Megan Moore with SeaGrant Pasco, silent auction, giveaways, and live printing!
Bring your blank shirts, hats, canvas bags, cups, water bottles, and more to get printed with our exclusive seagrass logo on the spot!
And help welcome back to land, Caroline and Julie, who will have just paddled over 60 miles to kick off fundraising and seagrass love. Sponsor them for just $1 a mile!
