General Meeting – North County Library
North County Library 1001 Sebastian Boulevard, Sebastian, FL, United StatesVideo premiere and panel discussion: Saving Scrub-Jays: The Pelican Island Elementary EcoTroop Story
In the late 1990s, urban development threatened one of the last pristine scrub habitats in the City of Sebastian. The students, parents, and teachers of nearby Pelican Island Elementary School took this as a call to action to rally the community to save the property and its resident Scrub-Jays.
Watch a video recounting how the land and its Scrub-Jays were saved and then take part in a panel discussion with some of the participants reminiscing about the hurdles they had to overcome to purchase the land to save it for posterity as scrub habitat.
