Volunteers needed for oyster shell bar projects at MacDill

March 5, 2020 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

Tampa Bay Watch is suspending all scheduled volunteer projects, environmental education field trips, and special events at least through the month of April since our number one priority is the health and safety of our supporters, volunteers, and staff. We will continue to monitor and reassess the situation with hopes of resuming our programs in May. Please check our website for further updates.

Helping hands are needed to assist in building a series of oyster shell bars at MacDill AFB on the mornings of March 5, 6, 19, & 20. The project involves shoveling fossilized shell into mesh bags and transporting the bags to the shoreline. It is pretty physical labor with oyster shell bags weighing around 30 pounds each. The goal is to restore lost habitat systems to the bay, prevent further erosion of the shoreline and improve water quality through natural biological filtration.
The deadline for volunteer registration is one week prior to the project to allow time for security clearance, so you’ll be pre-approved for entry.
