Description
Tampa Bay Watch is seeking the help of a few tenacious volunteers to support our Shells for Shorelines program to assist in collecting oyster shell donations from our partner restaurants on a weekly basis: Monday - Friday during business hours. Duties include picking up the shell, dropping them off at the curing pad, and delivering clean buckets to the restaurants. Volunteers should have the ability to lift 35 lbs, a personal vehicle (preferably a pickup truck) capable of carrying up to ten 5-gallon buckets, and comfortable with Florida flora and fauna typically associated with decomposition of organic matter.
A required training is offered on Fridays at 8 AM by riding along with our staff on their route meeting in Tierra Verde.
