Join us on the Beaches of South Walton On February 13 to oppose oil drilling in our coastal waters. Protests are planned statewide from Jacksonville to Miami and Key West to Pensacola

The main protest in South Walton will take place from Seagrove beach to Grayton Beach but all TDC beach accesses are a perfect place to gather and send a message to our legislators that oil drilling is a bad policy for our future. Join hands and create human lines in the sand against oil.

IT'S SIMPLE, GO TO YOUR BEACH AND JOIN HANDS FLORIDA
