It’s Easy Being Green

Focus Class No Comments »

So what’s all the hype about going green? What exactly does it mean and should you be concerned? Come learn about what going green really means and simple ways to green your life. We will discuss ways the Georgia Sea Turtle Center is moving toward being a green facility and discover how you can help the environment by changing simple, everyday tasks to major decisions like home renovation and travel. Local resources are available-the research has already been done! Spend an hour with Kelly O’Keefe, an Educator with the Georgia Sea Turtle Center, and put a little green in your daily diet!

Scute’s Ocean Adventure Puppet Show!

Education No Comments »

So what’s new at the Georgia Sea Turtle Center? Our newest program, of course! Scute’s Ocean Adventure Puppet Show is the youngest of many programs offered by the Education staff at the Georgia Sea Turtle Center. A hand-crafted puppet theater with custom mural will draw you in for the story of Scute, the Loggerhead Sea Turtle and GSTC mascot! This theatrical wonder tells the tale of Scute’s adventures in the sea and encounters with other coastal characters, until a strange happening lands him in the helpful hands of Dr. Norton, the Center’s one and only veterinarian. If you haven’t been to the theater lately, make plans to see the two remaining November performances on Saturday the 22nd and 29th at 3pm! We’ll sea you there!

The Perfect Christmas Gift

GSTC gifts No Comments »

Looking for that perfect Christmas gift for someone in your life?  The Georgia Sea Turtle Center has what you’re looking for!  We have a number of unique options that will surprise and delight even the ‘person who has everything’.  Here’s a few suggestions from us to you:

Give the gift that gives back…purchase a SEA TURTLE ADOPTION in their name!  This $50 tax free donation will directly benefit the patients at the GSTC cluding care, feeding, housing, medication and treatments. And if the turtle is releasable and eligible, funds will also be used to purchase a satellite transmitter, pay for satellite time after release and data management. Our Adopt-a-Sea Turtle Program has 2 options: #1 Current Patients (Duffy, Griffin and Simone) and #2 Successfully Released Patients with a Satellite transmitter (Gale).  CLICK HERE to view eligible patients and learn a little bit about each one! 

Know someone who LOVES sea turtles?  What about a MEMBERSHIP to the GSTC?  Becoming a Member of the GSTC is like becoming a member of our family.  Membership are good for 1 year from date of purchase, and include unlimited access to the GSTC, discounts in our Gift Shop and special programs such as Turtle Walks, Hatchling Walks and Birthday Parties, the GSTC monthly newsletter and access to a MEMBER’S ONLY page on our website!  And that’s just a few of the amazing benefits you’ll received (*total benefits are dependent upon Membership Level)! We offer 6 different Membership levels, one of which will surely fit the recipient and your budget!  CLICK HERE to learn about the various Membership levels we offer!

*Adoptions and Memberships may take 2-4 weeks for processing and delivery of materials, so make your purchase TODAY!  Both can be purchased in person, by phone, fax or mail, or through our online store. 

Still looking for something more?  Shop our ONLINE STORE!  You’ll find jewerly, t-shirts, books, mugs and much, much more!  Items can be found in an array of prices to fit anyone’s budget! CLICK HERE to visit our online store!
