CAPE CORAL, FL, the Florida Shell Company, LLC has partnered with Florida Gulf Coast University to fundraise for the deployment of “Kimberly’s Reef.” This initiative called the “Restoration Reef Project” will raise funds for FGCU Water School’s Vester Field Station so FGCU can deploy “Kimberly’s Reef” as an innovative and local under-water reef laboratory and classroom. More information about the environmental impact of the deployment of the reef can be found on our page here, along with current photos of the development of the reef infrastructure from FGCU.

The event is sponsored by Rustys’ Raw Bar & Grill, The Florida Shell Company, LLC, Bacardi, Tunaskin, Risk Strategies, Suncoast Beverage Sales, Sysco, John R. Wood, and the Boat House Tiki Bar & Grill (The Kearns Restaurant Group). Sponsorship opportunities and the full event flyer can be found here at www.restorationreefproject.com.
