First we would like to wholeheartedly thank everyone who made our
Summer Symposium a success! We are gearing up for our next big event and would like to remind you that on Sunday, September 18, 2016 Ploppy Palace Productions and Love The Everglades Movement will be hosting a concert to raise awareness and funds for Everglades protection and public education. As part of this three stage extravaganza, some of South Florida's top bands, spoken word artists and community activists will join together to raise awareness for this vital natural resource.
So please join us for a fun night of music & celebration!! This is also a call for action! We really need your help on this one, In spite of the Zika scare tactic we refuse to give in to the fear and rather gather in Love & Defiance to stand up for our Everglades and Environment. Please come out and join us, bring your friends, bring your family. If you cannot make it and would still like to support us then we ask you to please share our event or buy a ticket to contribute to the cause

Sponsors and supporters for helping us make our 3rd Summer Symposium a success. We have emerged with a greater understanding Love and Respect for each other and our Everglades we also had a blast on our Clean up day where we removed just under 800 lbs of trash from the River of Grass! Here are a few highlights of this year Symposium and with that let us continue to build a community that is in engaged in Everglades matters because the Everglades matters. |
