Oyster Shell Bagging (Private)

This is a private event for the Eco Scouts.

Join us for an oyster shell bagging at the Coastal Center and help bag oyster shells that will eventually be deployed into the Indian River Lagoon for restoration! 

Registration required. We cannot accommodate those not registered for this event.

Please wear closed-toe shoes, appropriate clothing and bring a reusable water bottle. Gloves provided. Participants not wearing closed-toe shoes will not be allowed to participate for liability/safety reasons.

Participants under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a parent/guardian. Participants ages 16-17 need to have signed Florida Oceanographic waivers if participating without a parent/guardian. Contact Volunteer Coordinator Rosemary Badger at rbadger@floridaocean.org to get these waivers emailed. 

  • Clothing that you don’t mind getting dirty (long sleeves and long pants reduce bug bites)
  • Closed-toe shoes are required (for protection from oyster shells)
  • Bring hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, water bottle
  • Sanitized gloves provided, but feel free to bring your own
  • Everyone will be walking the ½ mile trail to the site.
