This past Wednesday area Turtle Watch and Turtle Patrol groups held “Big Turtle Day” at the Community Center on nearby Ocean Isle Beach. The day’s event was an opportunity to raise awareness and to raise money for these non-profit orginizations dedicated to preserving these endangered sea creatures.

The highlight of the event was a visit by “April” the Green Sea Turtle. April is a baby sea turtle from the Sea Turtle Hospital at Topsail Beach. There was a silent auction and children’s activities.
