On Saturday, July 27th the Cast Away Club’s featured topic was “Bee Wild”. Lisa Wood of Bee Cause taught the kids all about bees. Lisa brought a bee hive to show the kids how the hive works – the role of the queen bee, worker bees and the drones. Lisa explained the importance of bees and the mission of the organization to inspire the next generation of environmental stewards while protecting our planet’s precious pollinators. Everyone that attended received honey sticks and a bio-degradable flower pot (seeds included) to start their own pollination garden and was invited to visit the Bee Garden located at Sparrow Field. After the nature presentation the kids and their parents fished the lagoon for about an hour. Volunteers were on hand to distribute fishing rods and bait provided by CCA. Volunteers also helped set up and repair rods as necessary. Cast Away Club events are always free. Kid’s logoed Cast Away Club hats and insulated drink bottles are available for a $10 donation. CCA is a non-profit organization with chapters on the Atlantic, Pacific, and Gulf Coasts. For more information about CCA of Skidaway, contact Rick Tallon (417) 294-2002.
