New Eglin Reef Building Competition Underway

In August and September CBA is building a living shoreline and reef breakwater at Eglin's Post'l Point. To complete the 1400 linear feet, made from limestone, CBA is running a competition with Eglin teams to see who can build the fastest! Corvias, Red Horse, and the Hurlburt Honor Guard have all competed so far, with more teams to come.

Want to field a team? Contact our Restoration Coordinator at gwinr@nwfsc.edu today.

Thank you Corvias!
Corvias donated two weeks of staff time and $8,000 to the Post'l Point reef breakwater project at Eglin Air Force Base. With their positive attitude, can-do spirit, and generosity, CBA was able to complete 450 linear feet in record time. Thank you Corvias!
