2016 Kiawah Conservancy Annual Report | Page 15

Earth Day Earth Day is always a special occasion for the Kiawah Conservancy . We gather exhibitors , vendors , entertainers , artists , photographers , and naturalists to share adventures in the Naturally Kiawah Demonstration Garden in Night Heron Park . This is an occasion for both fun and education for visitors and residents of every age .
Shorebirds Symposium – October 12 , 2017 Mark your calendar now for the latest in our series of symposiums held annually since 2014 . Our first topic was Forty Years of Developing With Nature . In 2015 we featured our much-loved loggerhead turtles and in 2016 the focus was our amazing alligator population . In 2017 Cindy Neal returns with another fabulous video and our topic is The Shorebirds of Kiawah Island : Sentinels by the Sea . We will gather in the brand new Kiawah Island Town Hall . Reserve your seat early — this is sure to be a sellout .
Mornings in the Garden The Naturally Kiawah Demonstration Garden continues to be a beautiful living laboratory on landscaping with native plants as well as a place to read and relax . Our Mornings in the Garden program features local experts who come to share their knowledge about species that thrive in the unique habitats found on Kiawah Island .
