Scallopalooza 2026

Scallopalooza is Sarasota Bay Watch’s biggest fundraiser of the year. Celebrate clean water with an open bar, hors d’oeuvres and food stations, a lively silent auction, and a chance drawing. Your participation drives year-round impact across Sarasota County, supporting debris cleanups, shellfish restoration, and marine science education that improve water quality and bay health. Connect with friends, browse auction items, and hear how local projects are making a measurable difference. Reserve your seats or a table, or come on board as a sponsor, and “take action today to protect our bays.” Learn more and register at SarasotaBayWatch.org/scallopalooza.
