Indian River Lagoon Day Highlights

The City of Melbourne ECO Division would like to give a little recap of Indian River Lagoon Day held on Saturday, October 18. We had over 30 vendors, and more than 200 people attended.

It was a beautiful day for families to enjoy the fresh air, great music from Miranda Realino, and good food from local vendors. Kids learned to fish with Anglers for Conservation, and gardeners learned to make a rain barrel, which they got to take home. Everyone had the opportunity to learn about the many ways to get involved in the effort to protect and restore the Indian River Lagoon.

The City of Melbourne joined with the City of West Melbourne, the Brevard County Natural Resources Management Department, Lagoon Life and the Indian River Lagoon National Estuary Program to host the annual event. We are grateful to Custom Tintz for helping to sponsor the stage this year, as well as RezPro for providing the stage and audio.
