Bill Sadowski Park & Nature Center Open House Event


Palmetto Bay, Florida
February 1, 2025

Overview

On February 1st, 2025, The International SeaKeepers Society participated in the Nature Center Open House at Bill Sadowski Park. Organizations including Florida Fish and Wildlife, Sea Turtle Rescue, The Crocodile Sanctuary at Florida Light and Power, the Girl Scouts, and more gathered to share unique aspects of Florida ecology and conservation with students and their parents. In addition to the reptiles housed at the nature center on-site, experts guided a box turtle named Houdini and a large boa constrictor around the park to greet participants and educate them on local herpetology. We shared knowledge about our marine ecosystems and the work going on at SeaKeepers to over 20 students, most of which attended with parents equally invested in the environment. We look forward to seeing some new faces at our beach cleanups and educational events!
