After being forced to hold last yearâs Earth Day events remotely at the height of the coronavirus pandemic, the Key Largo area state park citizen support organization will be able to gather this year to hold a poster contest, mangrove walk and announce upcoming improvements to the parks this Saturday, April 24.
Ann Helmers, president of the Friends of John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park and Dagny Johnson Key Largo Hammock Botanical State Park, said this Earth Day, which is Thursday, April 22, will be the first public outreach event her group has been able to hold since the pandemic began. Local students will be able to create a poster related to nature or the planet and enter it into the poster contest. This yearâs winner will be selected by popular vote of everyone at the park on Earth Day.
⢠Turned Out Turn About
A fundraiser for the Key West Business Guild AH Monroe will feature an unlikely lineup of drag performers, including the soon-to-be-infamous Aqua-Nots, all competing for a prize package.
