Saturdays at 10 AM at the Learning Center at Barefoot Beach
Preserve
Don't miss out on our exciting upcoming lecture series for
2012. Many interesting and thought provoking lectures
on a wide variety of subjects, both old and new, will be
presented all the way through March.
PLACE: Barefoot Beach Learning Center (2 miles west of US
41 off Bonita Beach Road, left turn at Barefoot Blvd.
light. Drive south through second guard gate and park in
the first parking lot. Lectures will be held in the Chickee
Hut between the butterfly garden and the cactus garden.
The Lecture Series is sponsored by the Friends of Barefoot
Beach Preserve, a non-profit organization concerned with the
protection and preservation of our precious marine and
wetland environment. There is no charge for the lectures,
however, a parking fee will be charged for those visitors
who do not have a Collier County Beach Parking Permit.
Permits are available free of charge to all individuals who
own property in Collier County, and may be purchased by
others. If you plan to visit the beach often or attend
lectures on a regular basis, purchasing a permit makes
sense.
