Shoreline Planting April 17th!
Hello Friends of Deadman’s Island! Everyone is welcome to help plant vegetation and set up coir logs saturday from 9am-2pm. If your kids need any type of volunteer hours, please have them bring their form on that day and I can sign off on their time. The tide will be high so we can determine if upland plants are suitable so bring your waders or wetsuits if you want. There will be a few waders available. We will be building Coir log stabilizers and planting shoreline vegetation. If anyone has access to a pontoon boat to load light weight supplies, please let me know. It would be extremely helpful to transport materials Friday afternoon. I am also looking for anyone who can volunteer the use of their recreational boat to transport people from the Three-mile Bridge City Boat Ramp to Deadman’s Island (1/4 mile). If you can help in anyway, please email or call me on my cell phone. Drinks and sandwiches will be provided by sponsors so please RSVP. If you have gloves and a shovel, please bring them! If you have a kayak and prefer to kayak over, you may launch at the boat ramp. The only thing mandatory is Sunscreen! Hope to see you there! Contact Heather Reed: 850-416-7008, 850-346-2073 (cell preferred)
