Learn about the beach ecosystem and other animals who call the beach their home at this “hands on” sea turtle baby shower featuring 20 exhibitors.

PBA President Rhonda Dorfman said, “This event is going to be ‘turtleriffic! Nesting season begins May 1st and we have so much to share with you. Bring the family to the beach early so they won’t miss Dan in the Sand make something special for this festival. You don’t have to bring a gift to this shower, but you will take home some great goodies after you have learned all about our ecosystem.” Arrive early and take the sea turtle oath.
