On Thursday, Feb. 3 from 6 to 8:30 p.m. the Friends of Cayo Costa will hold their annual dinner and silent auction to benefit the Cayo Costa State Park. Held at the Tarpon Lodge, 13771 Waterfront Drive in Bokeelia, the event will include dinner, cash bar, a silent auction and loads of unforgettable merriment.

The mission of Friends of Cayo Costa is to preserve, protect and promote the unique unspoiled natural beauty and heritage of Cayo Costa State Park for present and future generations.

Monitoring, marking nests and documenting sea turtle data is just some of the good work Friends of Cayo Costa State Park does to preserve and protect the island.
