Also, the Central Pacific Women’s Group visited the National Wildlife Refuge in Hermosa Beach last September 22nd morning. They had the opportunity to remove eggs from the nests the turtles’ laid during the night, bring them and place them in the protected area and remove and release just hatched baby turtles, an amazing experience. They donated a roll of much needed aluminum screening which is used to protect the incubating eggs. Please see the turtle video on YouTube www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKhj_ac6X-I.
