Description

Turtle Rescue of the Hamptons outreach educator Erika Haberkorn will join Group for the East End to talk about native turtles on Long Island. Learn about habitats, history, and helpful tips on how to protect wild turtles and enhance your backyard for long-term survival and reproduction. You will get to meet some of the current residents at the Turtle Rescue of the Hamptons' Rehab Center! Weather permitting, we will also take a short walk around Downs Farm Preserve to see if we can find any signs of turtles on the property. Turtle Rescue of the Hamptons, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization located on the North Fork of Long Island that is passionately dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation and release of sick and injured turtles that are native to New York. The Center has rehabilitated more than 1500 turtles who were injured or in need of medication. Group for the East End is an environmental organization that has been protecting eastern Long Island’s land, water, and wildlife since 1972. Families with children welcome. Registration is required as space is limited to 15 people. This event is free to attend, though donations are also encouraged and appreciated.
