Got plans for June 20th?

You do now, because the sea turtle enthusiasts at the Blue Moon Gift Shops and the Gallery at Racine have put together an afternoon of fashion, food, fun and fabulous pricing, all to benefit our hospital.

The event kicks off at noon, and will include a 1:00 PM fashion show highlighting the colorful Hawaiian clothing found at Coconut Traders. And while you’re picking out your summer togs you can sample their Tortuga rum cakes, punch and Caribbean hot sauces. Other entertainment will include strolling musicians from the Ukulele Academy as well as demonstrations from some of the 100 artists and retailers in the Blue Moon Shops. Sara Webster will also be on-hand to sign her latest children’s book. Ten percent on ALL shop and gallery sales during this event will be donated to our turtles.

If you’re looking for a special piece of art, snap up some raffle tickets for a one-of-a-kind wood and copper turtle sculpture donated by Shaw Lakey. One hundred percent of the proceeds from the Lakey raffle, as well as the Chinese Auction will be donated to the hospital. 

Please help us continue our work at the Sea Turtle Hospital by joining the fun June 20th from 12 noon until 3 PM at “Wilmington’s Best Gift Shop, 2009″ in the Racine Center for the Arts. Contact Mary Ann Masucci at: 910-799-5793 for additional information.
