It's a wrap for Halloween at Loggerhead Marinelife Center. The Juno Beach sea turtle rescue and research center announced that through its fourth annual Unwrap the Waves recycling campaign, it had collected a total of 272,595 candy wrappers. The Marinelife Center also announced H.L. Johnson Elementary School as the recycling champion during its live broadcast among participating schools from Martin to Miami-Dade counties. The Unwrap the Waves campaign kicked off Saturday, Oct. 19, and ended Monday, Nov. 11, summoning a record number of 34 schools and more than seven community partners throughout four counties. LMC will recycle 100% of the collected candy wrappers through Terracycle’s Zero Waste Program, which will be re-purposed into school supplies, such as pencils and notebooks. After announcing the winner, the LMC Education Department challenged students to the next school-wide undertaking called the Blue Holiday initiative. The competition will stir hands-on, STEM-centric lesson plans aligned in Next Generation Sunshine State Standards (NGSSS) for grades K-12. The lesson plan includes two holiday classroom challenges for a chance to win fun sea turtle prizes. One of the prizes for the winning classroom will be an opportunity to name a future sea turtle patient at LMC’s Sea Turtle Hospital. Both competitions will have a virtual submission, so any school can participate. For more information, visit www.marinelife.org or call 561-627-8280. ¦
