The Problem

In an ongoing effort to protect the Indian River Lagoon, the Suntree Chapter of Roots and Shoots will be doing a River clean up at Suntree Rotarty Park which is adjacent to the river. While doing the clean up we will look out for horseshoe crabs and help with an effort to protect them.

Our Plan

We will meet at the park and clean up any trash or fishing line we might see. We will also help any horseshoe crab that might be on their backs. We will discuss the issues facing the lagoon and discuss recent horseshoe crab deaths and theories related to the problems.
