Last year, Sanibel-Captiva Conservation Foundation Youth Education Director Shannon Rivard had the opportunity to talk to fifth-graders at Heights Elementary School in Fort Myers about “Life Below Water.” She shared ways to protect marine life and combat pollution, overfishing, invasive species and more. Recently, the SCCF’s Coastal Watch and Sanibel Sea School hosted the same students for a beach cleanup that involved more than 50 people.
