This year’s top Refuge fundraiser delves into the “afterhours” world of our Yellow-crowned and Black-crowned Night Herons. We have seen the night herons come back strongly at the Refuge and throughout the islands following Hurricane Ian, with lots of new chicks offering hope for the future. Let’s go “into the night” to celebrate them on Wednesday, February 7 at the Sanibel Community House from 5 to 8 p.m.

An evening full of dinner, drinks, entertainment, auctions, and fun. Support from "Ding" Darling Wildlife Society's annual fundraiser will go toward supporting the overall conservation and education efforts at the J.N. "Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge. We hope you're ready to have some fun, support the Refuge, and go wild for "Ding"!

Registration is $150/person. Reservations required.
