FinFest is coming!
Our next big fundraiser is September 30th, 2017 at the New Port Richey Recreation and Aquatic Center (6630 Van Buren St, New Port Richey, FL 34653).
The proceeds raised will go toward our STEM education initiatives! We work with schools, churches, and other community groups to promote the importance of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) by utilizing sharks. We call it "Swimming Through STEM with Sharks!" The idea is to get children excited about the sciences using novel and interactive learning opportunities. Science and engineering don't have to occur in stuffy offices or labs, you can be a scientist just about anywhere. So we show the young people that science is fun! For more information about our programs, check out the Education Programs page!

The Family Pack includes: admission for up to five people (ages 3+, under 3 are free and do not require a ticket), as well as a hot dog or hamburger, a bag of chips, and a soda for each person. The family packs are limited, so grab your's before they are gone!
If you are unable to attend the event, but still want to help, click the button below to purchase a shark adoption kit. A perfect gift for kids (or adults) who love sharks or who care about conservation (which is ALL of us, right?!)
This kit includes a lovable 10" shark (Tiger, Black Tip, or Hammerhead), a photo of one of the tagged Black Tip Sharks in Bimini (we have Mermaid or Finn, currently), an adoption certificate, information about the project and the importance of studying the sharks, as well as an adorable shark tote bag! All of this for $35, and 100% of the profit goes directly to the shark conservation project!
