Turtle Information Evening

Randy Orwin (President of Cooloola Coastcare) digging a hole for Joan Burnett (TurtleCare Project Leader) to relocate the loggerhead turtle eggs to a safer location away from the high tide
Cooloola Coastcare are hosting a meeting on our “Super Special Sea Turtles Nesting on Rainbow Beach and more”.
The Community Information and Consultation meeting will be held on Wednesday, February 12 from 5.30 to 7pm at the Rainbow Beach Community Hall.
Come and find out about the 30-plus marine turtle nests on Rainbow Beach this season.
This has never been seen before. Find out how to be turtle aware and help us protect the baby hatchlings as they emerge.
We also want to gauge interest in starting a Junior Coastcare group for children and youth. If you can’t come but your kids are interested, email Lindy Orwin with your name, phone number and email, your child’s first name and age, your town and the best days of the week for them to attend a 1.5 – 2-hour activity-based program, so we can gauge interest.
We’ll share our ideas for the concept of Coastcare establishing an Interpretive and Education Centre in Rainbow Beach.
Lastly we’ll update you on the latest about improving the water quality and biodiversity in the Tin Can Inlet.
RSVP by email or text Lindy Orwin coordinator@cooloolacoastcare.org.au / 0478 039 322.
