Save the Date. Save the Ocean.Now in its 4th year, SOS Ocean Conservation Day is a free, one day, outdoor event not only fun, but an educational program for the entire family that will help bring awareness to our ocean and the efforts to preserve and protect our living coral reef ecosystems.
This year we are excited to announce that we will be joining with the Las Olas Oceanside Park Farmers Market on Saturday, August 7, 2021 from 9am to 4pm, located at 3000 East Las Olas Blvd, Fort Lauderdale Beach.
? The SOS Mission this year: PROTECT THE ECOSYSTEM ?
? Within the SOS Ocean Conservation area, ocean / marine conservation groups will engage in outreach with the public about issues that could be addressed on a local level: corals - manatees - lionfish - beach/ocean debris - sharks - sea turtles - manta rays - whales - lobstering - water quality - wildlife rescue - mangroves - fishing regulations - ocean safety and more. ?
? Keep an eye out for the colorful SOS Debris Art Donation Boxes located at each non-profit tent. 100% of the donations will go to the group(s) you would like to support to help them continue their efforts here in South Florida. ?
