ECO-TEERS Club

The Eco-teers are a Flamingo Gardens volunteer outreach group that support habitat protection, coastal resilience, and environmental projects in Broward County, and provide climate change and environmental education to residents and visitors.

The Eco-teers plan and implement monthly projects which include, but are not limited to:

• Hardwood tree plantings to help capture carbon dioxide to counteract rising temperatures and clean our air while also providing additional greenery to our communities.
• Mangroves and other coastal vegetation planting to help capture carbon dioxide, improve marine habitat, reduce beach erosion and help protect communities from flooding.
• Waterway and shoreline clean-up to help improve marine/aquatic habitats and improve cleanliness of our communities.

Twice-monthly meetings include an educational/social meeting and an off-site project day.

Requirements:

• Eco-teer application and approval from Volunteer department
• Minimum quarterly project commitment
• $20 t-shirt purchase
• Age 15 and up

The first meeting of every month will be held at Flamingo Gardens while the second meeting of the month will be held off-site. The location will depend on the topic of the assigned project for that month.
