Oyster Radio: St. Vincent National Wildlife Refuge to host Open House on Friday

If you would like to visit St. Vincent Island, but don’t have a boat to get there then Friday is your lucky day.

St. Vincent National Wildlife Refuge will host an open house on March 28th from 9:00am to 3:00pm.

This educational event will allow you to visit the Refuge free of charge for the day.

The Refuge barge will even provide hourly transportation from the Indian Pass boat ramp to the island.

The day will include guided tours of the island, wildlife exhibits presentations on photography, history and birding and even free snacks.

If you plan to take part, you should bring your own bug spray, sunscreen, and water and make sure to wear comfortable walking shoes.

The Refuge is open to the public year-round during daylight hours except during hunt periods and prescribed burns and/or wildfires.

You don’t need special permits or prior notice – all you need is a boat.

You can get more information on the open house and the refuge on-line at stvincentfriends.com.
