A healthy bay is everybody’s business! Sarasota Bay Watch announces open registration for the 12th Annual Scallopalooza Fundraising Event. The “clamtastic” event is set for 6pm, Saturday, February 12 at the Hyatt Regency Sarasota. “Scallopalooza, It’s Clamtastic!” will provide a happy hour, dinner, light presentation, a very popular silent auction, and entertainment while raising funds for local shellfish restoration across the Bay in Sarasota and Manatee counties. Early Bird tickets are available until Friday, December 31. Single tickets are $100. For more information and to register, please visit sarasotabaywatch.org/scallopalooza2022. Your host is Sarasota Bay Watch, an action-based, grassroots, non-profit organization dedicated to restoring coastal ecosystems through citizen participation. In 2021 alone over 825,000 clams were released! Clams naturally filter excess nutrients that contribute to red tide and poor clarity affecting seagrass growth, a necessary food source for local marine mammals. Membership is free; visit sarasotabaywatch.org to get involved with its on-going effort to protect and restore the local natural resource.
