Florida Youth Challenge Academy Rocks!

The FLYCA conducted four work days in the Month of November. They were able to spread mulch, pick up old trash and tires, and tons of trash that constantly washes into the sanctuary down the neighborhood drainage ditch. The cadets were learning the value of hard work and enjoyed being outdoors at the same time. Scott Davis and I led them on a nature walk into the swamp where we dip-netted macro-invertebrates to see what lives under the water.

Thanks for all your help FLYCA! Duval Audubon appreciates it!
