Translocation
The Turtle Nest Translocation will take place beginning at 5:30 pm on the south side of the Kimpton Beach. The Turtle Centre will relocate a clutch of eggs that were laid by a turtle at the Centre and recreate the nest on the beach at the Kimpton. The Turtle Centre will provide information on nesting and the translocation process, which takes roughly one hour to complete. Ten to twelve days following the translocation the eggs will hatch and the turtles will return to the Sea.
Cocktails
Cocktails will be served in the Ballroom foyer beginning at 6:30 pm and the check in desk and jockey registration table will open at that time. If you have not yet provided your jockey information please send to me the names at your earliest convenience. Please let me know if you require any volunteers to assist with the racing. While this is not a sit-down event passed food and food stations will be set up in the Ballroom and there will be an open bar for the duration of the event.
