Eco-Educational Signs: Tribute Program
These Educational signs exist thanks to the kindness of our community. Each one honors a generous donor or the person they chose to celebrate. We’re deeply grateful for the support that makes this learning journey possible.
Help us teach visitors about our barrier-island ecosystem—bees, owls, sea turtles, bats, native plants, and more—by sponsoring an Eco-Educational sign. Each sign costs $1,900 to produce and install. With your gift, we’ll place your name on the sign (or dedicate it in honor or memory of someone special). These are our Tribute Signs, and they make learning possible for everyone who visits.
Interested? We’d love to talk.
Contact Kelly at Email: Lubekelly@icloud.com to sponsor a sign and choose your tribute wording.
