Oyster Reef Ball Installation

This event is no longer on sale.

Thursday November 30

9:00 AM  –  12:00 PM

 

Tampa Bay Watch is recruiting volunteers to help install oyster reef balls on the shoreline of Abercrombie Park, PARK ST. AND 38TH AVE. N., ST. PETERSBURG, FL 33709.

This is a heavy project as reef balls weigh 200 pounds each. Two people will carry one reef ball at a time to install it on the shoreline. Reef balls stabilize shorelines and prevent erosion while creating habitat similar to natural oyster communities found along shoreline areas throughout Tampa Bay. Click here to visit our webpage to learn more about reef balls
