The Environmental Protection Agency's Gulf of Mexico Program recently awarded Sarasota Bay Watch the Gulf Guardian Award for our scallop restoration project, a ten year intiative to boost the scallop population to a self-perpetuating level. For the past two years with the support of the community, SBW has raised funds at Scallopalooza to enable us to distributed 24 million scallop larvae into Sarasota Bay's seagrass beds. Now in our 3rd year, SBW carries out what Fish and Wildlife Research Scientists consider to be
"the most aggressive scallop restoration in the state of Florida".

Bring your friends and meet new ones at Scallopalooza to celebrate our Gulf Guardian award and raise funds for continued scallop restoration efforts. Join Sarasota Bay Watch and share in this committment to our community.
