Are you a recreational fisher at South Padre Island? Have you ever come across an injured sea turtle?

Join us for an engaging conversation with local voices in shaping solutions towards sustainable fishing practices. Let’s dive into all things sea turtle as we discuss the challenges faced in conservation here on SPI.

Facilitators will lead small groups to come together and answer the question:

What sustainable practices can community members act upon to increase the conservation of local species?

Participants will also hear from guest speaker Dr. Amy Bonka, Chief Conservation Officer at Sea Turtle Inc, on the importance of sea turtle conservation.

Hors d’oeuvres by Karla’s Katering and childcare accommodations will be provided.

In addition, all participants will receive a goody bag and be entered for door prizes. Community members can register for the event at seaturtleinc.org. 

Please note, seats and childcare are limited.
