Snorkel Work day at Deadman’s Island
August 4th, 2010We will be affixing quadrats to the oyster units with cable ties. Created by GB Eagle Scouts Kyle McKissack and his troops.
We will be meeting at 9am at Wayside Park (Gulf Breeze Boat ramp at the end of three mile bridge).
OK, Rules and suggestions since we are around water: You do need to have your own mask and snorkel, glove and water boots encouraged. Hats, Surf shirts or t-shirts are encouraged to prevent sunburn on the back. It’s not a good idea to have a lot of sunscreen on and possibly washing off from people and chancing sunscreen to impact the reef.
It will be high tide but the deepest area is around five feet. Parents need to be responsible for kids. Divers are welcome for underwater attachment of the structures but because of depth freedivers are fine too.
As usual boats are needed for transporting people and lunch is sponsored by Lenny’s Sub Shop. Please RSVP (346-2073 or email heather_reed@juno.com) if you can so I can get a lunch count. I would like to have three lookouts and three data collectors who prefer not to get in the water.
If you would like to get community services hours for school or other please bring your form for me to sign.
It should be a really fun day! Hope to see you there!
