Celebrate the one-year anniversary of success and progress with Scoot the Turtle.
The Georgia Sea Turtle Center is hosting its one-year anniversary celebration June 28 from 1-4 pm at the Georgia Sea Turtle Center. Local residents and guest are invited to join Scoot the Turtle and the GSTC staff in this elaborate celebration of success and future progress.

The ambitious, $3 million center – offering an outstanding, museum-style learning experience and a state-of-the-art rehabilitation center and veterinary clinic – is the first of its kind in Georgia.
