Victoria Foster, Staff Writer

 

The Navarre Beach Sea Turtle Conservation Center has announced that they are again holding their annual Sea Turtle Soirée. The event will take place on Dec. 9, at the St. Francis of Assisi Event Hall.

The NBSTCC’s mission statement is to “give sea turtles more tomorrows through conservation, education, and research” according to their website. All proceeds from the soirée will go towards this cause.

The event will feature full meals, drinks, and a silent auction featuring locally made original arts of various mediums, gift certificates to local attractions and fine jewelry. The NBSTCC has announced additional items will also be auctioned.

The general attire for the event is expected to be beach casual, unlike previous years where the attire was evening formal.
