SUMMARY:Shoreline Planting at Fort Macon State Park
DESCRIPTION:The Coastal Federation and Fort Macon State Park invite volunteers to help protect shoreline\, one plant at a time.

Volunteers should wear weather-appropriate clothes that can get wet and dirty. Closed-toed shoes that cover the foot are required. Volunteers should also bring a water bottle\, hat\, sunglasses and any medications they may need. Snacks\, water\, sunscreen\, bug spray\, gloves and planting tools will be provided.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis event is limited to 30 people and registration is required. \n\n\n\n\nRegister Here\n\n\n\n\nLocation:

SUMMARY:Green Drinks Morehead City
DESCRIPTION:Green Drinks is a casual monthly gathering for people who care about our coast. Whether you enjoy boating\, beach days\, or simply want to keep our waters clean and our communities strong\, this is a relaxed space to connect with others\, hear from local voices\, and stay up to date on important coastal topics. Each month\, we’ll highlight a different issue—like salt marsh restoration\, oysters\, or local happenings that impact the coast—and talk about how we can work together to protect the places we all enjoy. Grab a drink from the bar and join the conversation—these events are free and open to the public. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGrab a Seat Here!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMay’s Speaker \n\n\n\nMatthew Godfrey \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis month\, we are welcoming Matthew Godfrey\, a sea turtle conservation expert with extensive experience in several regions. Matthew earned his PhD from the University of Toronto\, where his research focused on how temperature affects the sex ratios of sea turtle hatchlings and the broader implications for conservation. Subsequently\, he was lucky to work on several different sea turtle conservation projects in South America\, the Caribbean\, and the Mediterranean. \n\n\n\nIn 2002\, Matthew moved to Beaufort\, North Carolina\, after being hired by the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission to coordinate the North Carolina Sea Turtle Project. Since then\, he has played a key role in monitoring and protecting sea turtle populations along the state’s coast. \n\n\n\nMatthew will give an overview of sea turtle nesting and nest protection in North Carolina\, highlighting some of the joys and challenges associated with sea turtle conservation along coastal North Carolina. Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of sea turtle conservation in North Carolina\, including the critical role of monitoring\, habitat protection\, and community involvement in supporting these species. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation:
