February Fun on Useppa - Thoughts and Pictures by UseppaGin - Boats in the Marina, volunteers in the Butterfly Garden, sailors in the 2nd Useppa Yacht Club 2024 Regatta, a speaker at the Museum, and fun in the pool… February on Useppa Island. Families and friends arrived by boat for the weekend. Old and new sailors raced and enjoyed Bill’s Grille on the beach. Betty Jean Steinshouer spoke at the Barbara Sumwalt Museum about environmental changes in Florida, and the roles of Marjorie Stoneman Douglas and Rachel Carson in protecting and preserving the place we love. Butterfly Garden and Paradise Partnership volunteers were the boots on the ground taking care of Useppa gardens. Chess games, bocce, and time at the pool rounded out the fun of early Useppa winter.
