Join SCORE to construct Manufactured Wire Reefs (MWR) with Casual Crabbing that will be an alternative substrate for oyster larvae to land and grow on. Volunteers will help to cut, bend, and fasten galvanized wire to form a reef structure using power tools. Volunteers must wear closed-toe shoes. Safety gear, bug spray, water, and other needed materials will be provided. If you are interested, please RSVP to [email protected] & [email protected] to secure your spot as slots are limited (50 per event)!
