This event will feature films promoting marine conservation, recreation, and environmental advocacy. Playing with Sharks highlights the life of Valerie Taylor, a pioneer scuba diver who went from spearfisher to shark conservationist. The film explores how the relationship between humans and sharks has evolved over time, especially after the release of Jaws incited fear for sharks worldwide. The movie discusses the harmful practice of "finning" and other human behaviors leading to the detriment of sharks, and how we can help conserve and preserve these creatures and our precious oceans.
In addition, There Does Not Exist Brewery (TDNE), in collaboration with CCSPA, is launching a limited edition small batch ale that supports our local State Parks! A portion of the sales from this new brew will help fund your favorite educational opportunities in our parks. Stay tuned for more release details!
All proceeds from screenings of the Get Outside! Film Series fund public outreach and education that celebrate the biodiversity of the Central Coast, where the land meets the ocean, within our local State Parks. Programs like school group transportation, campfire programs, guided hikes, Western Monarch education and outreach, living history, and public land advocacy are all made possible thanks to funds generated by these and other CCSPA fundraising activities. Together we can continue to educate our future environmental stewards, advocate for the preservation and protection of our natural resources and open spaces, and support the wonderful programming offered at each of our Central Coast State Parks.
