Hunting Island’s Annual Sand Sculpture Contest will be held Saturday, June 18, at the lighthouse beach. Free registration starts at 10 a.m. and prizes will be awarded at 2 p.m.
This year a new award category has been included called the People’s Choice Award — everyone can vote for their favorite sculpture for $1 per vote. All money raised through the votes, and from the entire event, will benefit Friends of Hunting Island’s Sea Turtle Conservation Project.
A silent art auction will be held that includes original artwork, including paintings, prints, photographs, wreaths, and many other donated collectibles. Children can enjoy face painting and tye-dying provided by the park. A steel band will play lively beach music, and refreshments will be available.
