Join us at Jewell-Steinhardt Cove for a Bioblitz extravaganza! What is a bioblitz you ask?..
A bioblitz is a communal citizen-science effort to record as many species within a designated location and time period as possible.
Bioblitzes are great ways to engage the public to connect to their environment while generating useful data for science and conservation. They are also an excuse for naturalists, scientists, and curious members of the public to meet in person in the great outdoors and are a lot of fun!
**WHAT YOU WILL NEED**
Water
Sun protection
Shoes for walking through mangroves or over rocks
Snacks

We meet on the shoreline in front of the small parking lot on the south end of the park (near the playground on 4th Avenue South).
As “adopters” of the living shoreline planters along Bryant Park in Lake Worth Beach we proudly take on the maintenance for this project so that we can make the Lake Worth Lagoon a better place for all.
**Come prepared to get dirty and sweaty, and wear shoes that can get wet. Remember your reusable water bottle, a hat and reef-friendly sunscreen. :)**

We meet on the shoreline across the street from the Lake Worth Beach Municipal Beach (park in the metered parking lot along A1A and walk across the street to where you’ll see a bus stop bench and interpretive sign).
