2020 Turtle Walks and Digs - CANCELLED
Unfortunately, Friends of the Carr Refuge made the difficult decision to cancel our popular August and September Turtle Walks for the year. We know how much these walks mean to all of our Friends, however we want to keep our amazing volunteers and community safe during these times.
Friends of the Carr Refuge is a small non-profit organization that relies heavily on memberships and donations to assist the Refuge and accomplish our goals of community education and conservation. Our main fundraising event each year is our popular Turtle Walks and Digs. Unfortunately the cancellation of these events leaves a major impact on our funds to carry out our goals. We understand that this is a challenging time for everyone, however if you can, please consider making a donation using this link.
