Why Becoming a Sponsor Matters

On April 18, 2026, we’ll host our 3rd Annual Sea Turtle Festival—a free, family-friendly event focused on conservation, creativity, and coastal education.

For many children, a single moment can spark a lifelong passion. At the Sea Turtle Festival, that spark often begins when they meet our pretend “sick” sea turtle, step into the Pretend Sea Turtle Hospital, or discover how simple, everyday choices can help them become ocean heroes.
