Earth Day 2003 at the Jacksonville Landing
was a great time! For those of you who did not make it, shame on
you! Just a reminder - two parts of our mission are CONSERVATION
and EDUCATION.
Earth Day 2003 was the perfect way for us to promote both. The JHS
table, compliments of the MOSH, enabled is to promote our society
and disseminate information to the curious and misinformed public.
All four members in attendance participated.
Mike and Lynn Monlezun set up the table, complete with literature
and 2 local snakes (Florida pine and Florida king). Sandra Wade
came and handled the kingsnake for passersby. The kingsnake even
gave Sandra a present (Ask her about it!). Jean Shubert, Curator
of Animals at the MOSH, and JHS member, manned the LEEF (League
of Environmental Educators) table and conducted a presentation on
some native herps in the capacity of MOSH employee.
Thanks to the participants and we hope that
this can grow into something bigger next year!
