Gulf World Will Raise Funds for Turtles

Our Gulf World Marine Institute (GWMI) park located in Florida, in conjunction with Panama City Beach Turtle Watch and Keep PCB Beautiful will host the second annual “Making Turtle Tracks” 5K Walk/Run fundraiser next Saturday, April 22 , in commemoration of Earth Day.

Registration will be open the same day of the event in the morning and online through RunSignUp for $40.00 usd, all participants will receive bags with items from our sponsoring organizations. The event will start at the M.B. Miller County Pier and in celebration of Earth Day, participants will learn about local sea turtles, shorebirds, marine mammals and other local coastal wildlife.

We thank each of the participating associations for their sponsorship, we are aware that without their support this would not be possible. We also want to stress that all proceeds from the event will go to GWMI’s sea turtle rehabilitation program.
