CRCL hosted its very first virtual Shell-A-Bration event on Friday, February 5, 2021. The 3rd annual event received a lot of attention and had guest attending from 18 states including Alaska and Hawaii. More than 100 guests were entertained by Sweet Crude, an oyster shucking class, and oyster shuck off and more!  Shell-A-Bration is a community event dedicated towards raising awareness and engagement for the organization’s Oyster Shell Recycling Program. If you are in New Orleans, you can recycle your oyster shells on Wednesdays at Glass Half Full. For oyster shell recycling outside New Orleans, check out this list of resources.
